Overview

• The revamped app is now live across the US, UK and Canada, organized around three core functions: integrated News, real-time Alerts and the AI-driven Faves feature.
• News feeds pull from more than 3,500 vetted local publishers—including The London Standard and e ToToronto Star—to deliver tailored journalism directly in neighborhood timelines.
• Alerts use data from Samdesk, The Weather Company and public agencies to populate a dynamic map of weather emergencies, traffic disruptions and power outages in real time.
• Faves, powered by a language model trained on over a decade of Nextdoor discussions, offers hyperlocal recommendations in select US markets with a UK rollout planned.
• Publishers must meet strict community guidelines before joining, ensuring users receive reliable local coverage and verified information.
