NYC is live on Grid. See who's at the places around you, what people are saying, and whether it's worth going. And message your friends without internet.
Grid shows you what's happening at the real places around you — right now.
Walk into a bar and see who else is there. Check a restaurant before you leave the house. Find out if it's packed, low-key, or somewhere in between — from people who are physically inside.
You're Here
When you arrive at a place, you join its live feed. Post what you're seeing, share the vibe, and connect with people sharing the same space. You can only post from where you are — which keeps everything real.
What's Happening
Every place has a live feed of posts from people actually there. Posts expire, so the feed always reflects right now — not last month.
Who's Here
See a live grid of people at the same place as you. Filter by interests. Start a conversation. Grid makes it easy to connect with people you're already in the room with.
Nearby
Browse live activity across your neighborhood. See which places are buzzing, what people are saying, and who's around — before you decide where to go next.
Off-Grid Messaging
Chat with people nearby even without an internet connection. Grid uses Bluetooth mesh networking to keep you connected at festivals, underground, or anywhere you've lost signal.
Vibe Check
Report the vibe in one tap — packed, low-key, loud, cozy, no line. Others see it instantly.
Privacy First
Control who sees your photo, what profile info is visible, and whether you appear in place feeds. Participate as openly or privately as you want.
Launching in New York City. Download Grid and see what's happening around you.
Refreshed look, smoother experience.
