How Beacon works
Anonymous
No login, ever. You comment under a fresh handle like QuietOtter — generated on the spot, tied to nothing.
Hyperlocal
You only see what's posted within your radius — 5 miles by default, adjustable. Every post shows a fuzzy area, never an exact pin.
Ephemeral
A fresh comment bumps a post to the top. Go 24 hours with no new comment and it's gone — nothing here sticks around.

Be the first signal
in your area.

Beacon rolls out neighborhood by neighborhood. Get on the list and light up your block on day one.

Beacon Made for your block.
