Your street already talks. Now it remembers.

A shared record of what's really happening in your neighbourhood — reports, corroboration and honest confidence levels, built by the people who live there.

Community-led and privacy-respecting — no panic feed, no doorbell-cam theatre, no rumour mill.

This is what your neighbourhood looks like inside

A shared, living picture built by the people who live there — what's been resolved, what's emerging, and where neighbours are lending a hand.

How a report becomes a record

01

Say what you saw

A quick report with a pin on the map — what, where, when. No essays, no drama.

02

Neighbours weigh in

Others corroborate what they saw too — or dispute it. Disagreement is recorded honestly, not shouted down.

03

Rumour becomes record

Confidence grows as accounts stack up. Contested items are labelled, never hidden — so the record stays honest.

Built for accuracy, not alarm

Group chats generate heat and lose the details. Every claim here carries its evidence with it.

Confidence that’s earned

Every incident carries an honest confidence level, driven by corroboration from residents — not by how loudly it was posted.

Disagreement is a feature

Anyone can raise a dispute. Contested items are flagged for everyone to see and resolved in the open.

From reports to patterns

Related reports link into patterns, so the neighbourhood sees the bigger picture behind one-off sightings.

Residents hold the keys

Moderation is done by vetted neighbours with earned trust levels — and anything that oversteps comes down.

Privacy-respecting by design

Resident-controlled moderation

Community-led, not surveillance

Fair questions

No — and it’s built so it can’t become that. This is record-keeping, not enforcement: what happened, where, and how sure the neighbourhood is. There are no call-outs and no confrontation tools, and sensitive material is restricted rather than broadcast. Anything criminal belongs with the police — a good shared record just means that when you do report it, you’re handing over facts instead of vibes.

That’s the problem this exists to fix. New reports start at low confidence, and only corroboration from other residents moves them up. Anyone can dispute a claim, and disputed items are visibly labelled as contested until resolved. The loudest voice doesn’t win — the best-evidenced account does.

Sensitive details are restricted to vetted, location-verified neighbours rather than the open internet, moderators remove anything that oversteps, and nothing about who follows or watches an incident is ever public. The standard is simple: record incidents, not people’s lives.

No. Report crimes to the police, always. What this adds is memory between reports: corroborated accounts, patterns across incidents, and — where it matters — a tidy evidence package that a moderator can compile for formal handover.
