About
Connect with your community to find solutions
What
Join the movement towards local
Circa is a location-based app on a mission to open up the world around you. We want to give you a view of everything going on nearby to enable you to make informed decisions of what or where to go next.
Why
Focusing on things within your reach
We are swapping out followers for new connections nearby. We want to unite and strengthen local communities. We limit your feed to 25 miles (40 km.), so nothing is out of reach.
We are ditching ads and complicated algorithms to focus on conversations with peers, new experiences, and a live feed where you control the feed. We want to provide opportunities to participate in your community, feel a sense of belonging while being respected.
How
What makes Circa different
1. Local over global
Our local community needs to move to the driver seat to strengthen our relationships with those within reach.
2. Less vanity, more community
There is too much “look at me” content. We believe in an environment that supports your learning and growth.
3. Respect your privacy
We believe in being transparent and careful when it comes to your data and who has access to it.
4. Pay it forward
We believe in the exchanges of ideas that lead to solutions.
5. Kindness never hurt anyone
We believe in being kind because we are all on the same team.
6. Your time is important
We believe in clear and easy to use design that reduce distractions and get you to where you want to go faster.
