Why we built this
Local should feel local.
Finding out what's actually going on in a town is still too hard. Information is scattered, outdated, or buried. Locals miss things happening down the street. Visitors don't know where to start. Hosts and small businesses repeat the same recommendations a hundred times a month. Communities hold the knowledge. It just isn't anywhere you can find it.
So we built Local Eyes: one site per town, written by someone who actually lives there. We give small places their own home online, and answer the way a friend who knows the town would, not a search result.
