3 people are within 100 ft of you

the people on your feed. the people right next to you.

NEAR shows you the strangers physically around you and lets you trade socials in one tap. No feed. No DMs. No algorithm picking who you meet. Just air — and the people sharing it.

How close is "near"

closer than the
nearest cardio
machine.

100 feet is the room you're already in. The coffee line. The lecture hall. The bar. The other side of the gym. NEAR ignores the rest of the internet and surfaces the people you could literally wave at.

shyness shouldn't
→ cost you the room.

Everyone has noticed someone interesting across a room and done absolutely nothing about it. The fear of saying hi, the fear of being weird, the fear of being told no — it adds up to a quiet life full of strangers you'll never meet again. We built NEAR to take that whole exchange off your shoulders. No cold opener, no shooting your shot, no rejection on the table. Just: they're around, you're around, here are the socials. Walk away with a contact or don't. The whole thing is over in 90 seconds.
