The stoop sale, the lost cat, the neighbor with a ladder. Street-level word of mouth from the people within a few blocks of you.
News gets more useful the closer it gets to your door. Tell Peachy how far your neighborhood stretches and the block-level stuff finds you: the free bookshelf on a stoop three streets over, the tabby matching the lost-cat post, the water shutoff heads-up. The truly urgent buzzes your phone the moment it's posted.
Berkeley packs a remarkable number of scenes into a few square miles. Tell Peachy you're looking in Berkeley and posts from people nearby surface for you, whether they're up in the hills, down by the marina, or a few blocks off Shattuck. The rest of the East Bay is one "a little farther" away.
You tell Peachy what you’re looking for the way you’d tell a friend, and the posts that match reach you.
“Show me posts from within a mile of home.”
“Buzz me for safety alerts and lost pets near Berkeley.”
“Surface giveaways and stoop sales before they're picked over.”
Sign up with your phone number. Peachy is a chat app: your people, your group chats, and one open Public space everyone shares.
Plain words, like the examples above, place included. You can change your mind any time. Just tell it.
Matching posts surface for you, and only what you asked to be buzzed for buzzes. Everything else quietly waits, sorted on time and topic, never deleted.
