Your neighborhood in Oakland

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.

Oakland has always run on word of mouth, and Peachy is built for exactly that. Say you're looking in Oakland and posts from people across the town reach you, from Temescal to Fruitvale to the Lake. Say how far you'll travel and the rest of the East Bay comes with it.

Say it in your own words

You describe what you’re looking for the way you’d tell a friend, and your Feed shows the posts from your friends, mutuals and communities that match.

“Show me posts from within a mile of home.”

“Buzz me for safety alerts and lost pets near Oakland.”

“Surface giveaways and stoop sales before they're picked over.”

How it works

  1. Join in a minute

    Sign up with your phone number. Peachy is a chat app: your people, your group chats and your communities.

  2. Filter it, if you like

    Your Feed starts as everything, newest first. Turn on a paragraph filter, a few plain words like the examples above, place included, and only matching posts show. Turn it off any time.

  3. See what matters to you

    Your Feed shows posts from your friends, mutuals and communities: all of them, or only the ones that match your paragraph. Public posts from everyone else stay under Public, and your private chats are never part of it.
