The architecture of serendipity.
Nearish pings you when people you actually want to see are nearby. Not a social network. Not a tracker. Just the quiet nudge that turns a coincidence into a coffee.

Invite up to 50 people — the ones you'd genuinely want to run into. Not followers. Not contacts. Your people.
Set yourself as "open to meet-ups" when you're available. Off means invisible — no tracking, no data, nothing.
When someone in your network is nearby — especially when one of you is travelling — you both get a contextual nudge.
Send a quick message, pick a spot, and turn a coincidence into a conversation. That's it. That's the whole app.
Another social network
No feeds. No content. No algorithms.
A location tracker
No precise coordinates. Ever.
A data product
No ads. No selling your info.
Your location is converted to a rough ~5km area, never stored as precise coordinates, and auto-deleted after one hour. The system physically cannot reconstruct your movement history. This isn't a policy — it's a design decision.
