Hoot: Presence-Based Social
Real life, in real time.
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Hoot is how you figure out what's really happening around you - in real time.
Social media shows highlights. Ads guess what you want. Hoot is different.
Hoot is a real-time concierge for real life. It learns your vibe from where you actually go - not what you post - and helps you decide where to go, what's worth your time, and who's already there.
What you can do with Hoot:
See what's happening nearby:
Open Hoot to view live activity in your area. Canopies show what's going on across neighborhoods, events, campuses, and districts - not just at one place, but across the entire area.
Ask questions:
Inside a Canopy, you can ask real people who are actually there:
Is this place busy?
What's the vibe right now?
Is it worth coming over?
No profiles. No pressure. Just real answers.
Find deals that actually matter:
HootDeals aren't random ads. They're real-time offers from businesses nearby, surfaced when it actually makes sense for you - based on what you like and where you are.
Build your identity through presence:
Hoot uses Feathers and Wingspan to reflect who you are based on real-world behavior. The more you show up, contribute, and help others, the more your presence carries weight.
No creepy tracking. No forced feeds.
Hoot doesn't push content to keep you scrolling. You're always in control. Nothing is forced. Nothing is fake.
Why Hoot Exists
Social apps made connection performative. Hoot brings it back to reality.
This isn't about followers or filters. It's about belonging, trust, and showing up.
Real life is happening all around you. Hoot helps you find it.
Minor bug fixes. Performance enhancements. Smoother app experience.
