NEAR
made for people you can wave at
The strangers around you, turned into connections. No feed. No DMs. Just who's here, now.
The most interesting people are often right next to you — and you never meet them. On NEAR you post Rolls where you are, see the ones around you, and once a day your Batch reveals everyone whose path crossed yours.
Rolls, your Batch, and the people you keep.
Your Batch, every day.
You live your life. Once every 24 hours, your Batch unlocks — everyone whose path actually crossed yours that day, from the coffee shop to the train to the block you walked down. No endless feed to scroll. Just the people who were really there.
Three steps. That's it.

Post & discover
Drop a Roll where you are and watch the ones around you. Once a day, your Batch reveals everyone whose path crossed yours.
Pin & connect
Pin people, get pinned back, and take it to the socials you already use.
You're only visible when you choose to be.
Discovery is opt-in and reversible. NEAR stores only a coarsened location — your position rounded to a ~100-meter grid (about 330 feet, roughly a city block) — never precise coordinates and never a continuous track of where you go. No passwords. No ads. No third-party trackers. We never sell your data.
Meet the people near you.
Free on the App Store. Opt-in, private, and built for the real world.
