Samara is a housing technology company focused on designing, manufacturing, and delivering accessory dwelling units (ADUs) and small-footprint homes. The company combines design, permitting, manufacturing, and installation into a single, streamlined process to help homeowners add housing supply to existing residential properties.
Samara’s technology platform coordinates zoning analysis, site planning, permitting, fabrication, and construction logistics. By standardizing home designs and using off-site manufacturing, the company reduces timelines, cost variability, and complexity compared to traditional construction workflows.
The platform is designed to work across municipalities with differing zoning and permitting requirements, providing homeowners with clear feasibility assessments and predictable delivery schedules. Samara partners with cities, lenders, and homeowners to support ADU development as a way to increase density and expand housing availability in constrained markets.
Samara’s homes are deployed in California, supporting use cases ranging from rental income to multigenerational living. As housing shortages persist, Samara’s technology-driven approach focuses on making small-scale residential development more accessible, repeatable, and efficient.
