About Neary
Connection shouldn't feel like a performance.
Neary is a social discovery app for people who want to meet others nearby — for friendship, fun, and real-life moments. No swiping. No dating. Just humans being human.
Our mission
Make every city feel like a community.
Whether you just moved, work remotely, or simply want to expand your circle — Neary helps you find people who are nearby, online, and open to the same kind of hangout you are.
Proximity over profiles
We believe the best connections happen in person. Neary prioritizes who's actually near you and online — not who has the best photos.
Friendship, not romance
Every design choice reinforces that Neary is for social connection — coffee, walks, games, study sessions — not dating.
Comfort by default
Clear boundaries, easy blocking, and thoughtful prompts keep the experience welcoming for everyone.
Spontaneity encouraged
Life is better when you say yes to the unexpected. Neary makes it easy to go from 'I'm free' to 'let's meet up.'
Who we are
The Neary team
Builders & believers
We're a small team obsessed with making cities feel less lonely. We built Neary because we wanted something like it ourselves.
