Our story

Know Your Circle

Nearfo is the first social network built for Indian neighbourhoods — a place to discover the people and businesses around you, build real trust, and earn from your community, all on your terms.

Why we built Nearfo

Global social networks made the world smaller — but somehow made our own streets feel further away. We believed India deserved a network that starts where life actually happens: the neighbourhood. Where the cafe down the road, the tailor next door, and the people you actually share a pin-code with finally have a home online.

So we built Nearfo around three ideas that don't usually go together on social media: hyperlocal discovery, real privacy, and real earnings — cashback, Boost Circle for businesses, and creator rewards that put money back into the community.

What we stand for

Local over global

Your feed is your neighbourhood — real people and businesses around you, not a faceless global timeline.

Privacy by default

End-to-end encrypted chats, hide-city toggle, DPDPA 2023 compliant. Your data stays in India.

Trust you can earn

The Nearfo Score rewards genuine activity and community trust — not vanity metrics.

Built in your language

Designed for Bharat — English, Hindi and Marathi, made for how India actually connects.
