Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about building real community with our platform
Getting Started
Do we really need an app for community?
Yes. History is example after example of communities thriving when people see each other as neighbors, regardless of their differences. But the media, elite, and algorithms are pushing us further and further away from each other. With so many forces pulling and pushing us away from each other, we need a tool that helps us meet face to face and build the patterns of a community.
How is this different from something like Facebook Groups or Meetup
We prioritize real-world connection over online engagement. Our tools are designed specifically for coordinating offline activities, managing shared resources, and building lasting community bonds. We don't use algorithms to keep you scrolling - we help you get offline and together.
Why would I sign up?
Look around you. Who could not benefit from legitimate community in the world we're living in? No matter your politics or beliefs, it's clear that we have become disconnected from each other. You should join if you want to reverse this trend.
What if I don't have anything to contribute to a community?
We promise you do.
Community Types
What kinds of communities use this platform?
All types! Neighborhood groups, housing co-ops, worker co-ops, rural communities, intentional communities, maker spaces, parent groups, and more. Any group that wants to build real-world connections.
Is this only for local communities?
While we focus on local, in-person communities, some groups use our platform to coordinate regional or national networks with local chapters. The key is that the ultimate goal is real-world connection.
Can I make a group for anything?
Yes, as long as they respect our community guidelines and are open to diverse participation. We welcome communities of all types that are committed to building positive connections.
