NearFi - Geo Messaging Tool

NearFi is a geo-messaging or location based communication tool. NearFi allows you to send a message to people near you in your vicinity, neighborhood and city. Get last minute real time information, help or alerts in a location. You can think of NearFi as a location based Reddit, Twitter and Clubhouse.

While WiFi is for online information, NearFi is for reaching out to people near you for real time last minute information

While WhatsApp is mainly a private network for friends and family, NearFi is a public network for people in a location

NearFi allows you to communicate with people near you, within 100 meters to people across your city. Just as in real life where we meet new people and make new connections in our everyday lives, NearFi not only makes this easier but extends our reach and opens up new possibilities

NearFi facilitates communication between people in a location around a common topic of interest or for discussing issues in a location or knowing more about your neighborhood and city

NearFi also facilitates communication between people belonging to the same tribes, people who share deep rooted connections based on their place of origin, cultures, languages, education etc., where people religiously follow their common interests and beliefs and help each other

NearFi comes to our rescue in numerous situations right from getting help from nearby people in emergencies to borrowing a charger or a book, or finding lost items like car keys, pets, or knowing more about neighborhood places and experiences

NearFi is for our everday real life situations. Keep it handy to get help and help others. Make new connections and friends with real people in your neighborhood and city, or while you are travelling or on a vacation

Users can create a post asking for information in a location, discussing issues in a location, alerting people about local incidents, sharing things, putting things on sale, and also in case of emergencies like medical emergencies, accidents etc., where people nearby can rush to the person in need of help

Below are a few situations where NearFi can help you
