We started NearCom because the tools we had — WhatsApp forwards, Facebook Groups, OLX cross-city clutter — weren't giving us the neighbourhood we wanted. So we built one.
Every city is a stack of neighbourhoods. Every neighbourhood is a stack of streets. And every street is quietly full of people who could be helping each other — if only there was a place to say hello.
NearCom is that place.
The whole app is anchored to the metre. When we say a post is 340 m away, it's 340 m — computed with the Haversine formula on the server, not "your city" or "your pincode."
OTP verification, single-account rule, no anonymous handles. Every neighbour is a real person on a real street. Bad actors get blocked, reported, and removed — permanently.
No infinite scroll. No engagement bait. No cross-city ads. The feed only shows what's near you, ordered by relevance to your neighbourhood — not by outrage.
DPDP Act, IT Act, SPDI Rules, Intermediary Guidelines — every one baked in from day one. Your data lives in India. Your address is never public by default. No Aadhaar, no payment data.
Six core screens, one visual language. Deep teal, breathable spacing, soft rounded surfaces — a design system we call the Curated Commons.
