ABOUT ROUMS
ROUMS started with a problem every remote professional recognizes: the blur effect looked unprofessional, but showing your actual bedroom to clients felt wrong.
Founded by Dani Tadmori in 2025, ROUMS was built to solve this exact challenge. As video calls became permanent infrastructure rather than temporary novelty, professionals faced an impossible choice—compromise your privacy or compromise your image.
The existing solutions weren’t solutions. Physical backdrops required space and money most people didn’t have. Platform blur effects screamed “I’m hiding something.” And sourcing professional backgrounds meant finding, vetting, and formatting images not designed for video conferencing.
An opportunity to build something better.
Using AI combined with decades of design and photography expertise, the platform creates backgrounds specifically engineered for video platforms. These aren’t repurposed stock photos—they’re purpose-built spaces that consider camera angles, lighting conditions, and how environments read through Zoom, Teams, and Google Meet.
The goal was accessibility.
Professional presence shouldn’t require a professional budget. ROUMS launched with free access to hundreds of static backgrounds across home offices, libraries, living rooms, and more. Register once, download what you need, and deploy it in seconds.
Built with purpose.
Every background is designed to solve real problems. Privacy when working. Consistency when your team is distributed across home offices. Polish when presenting to clients. The technical work happens before download—proper aspect ratios, optimized file sizes, lighting that works everytime.
Direct to professionals.
No subscriptions required for professional static backgrounds. No design expertise needed. Select your environment, download, and you’re ready for your next meeting. ROUMS has eliminated the friction between needing a professional presence and having one.
Building the future of virtual presence.
ROUMS collaborates with artists and designers worldwide, each contributing their perspective to what professional virtual environments can be. This evolution reflects decades of experience building platforms that serve creators—great design comes from diverse voices, not a single vision.
The next phase is already in development. Video backgrounds will launch in the coming months, bringing motion and depth to professional spaces. Themed collections at higher resolutions for specific industries and use cases. Each addition is tested against the same standard: does this make professional video presence better, or just more complicated?
The workspace is no longer bound by four walls.
With ROUMS, professional environments adapt to context. Client presentation, team standup, investor pitch—each gets the appropriate setting without rearranging your actual space.
ROUMS isn’t selling backgrounds. The platform gives professionals control over their virtual presence, whether they’re working from home offices, coffee shops, or anywhere else their work takes them. One carefully designed space at a time.
