Introductions Cirqles

Cirqles is a location-aware social platform designed to bridge the gap between social distance and physical proximity. Users can create posts that are anchored to their current location, view only what’s happening nearby, and amplify content through a unique pinning system that allows users to expand a post’s reach in meaningful ways.

Unlike traditional social media, Cirqles emphasizes local discovery without sacrificing privacy. The app ensures that a user’s exact location is never shared, while still enabling geographically grounded interactions through:

* Proximity-based feeds: Posts are only visible to users nearby, creating highly relevant local content.
* Global connections: By following others, users can stay updated on posts regardless of distance.
* Three-level pinning system: A novel engagement model that lets users extend a post’s reach based on type and location.
* Full discussion tools: Including comments, replies, upvotes/downvotes, and direct messaging.
* Interactive maps: Every post includes a visual representation of its impact and reach.
* A built-in reputation system: Every interaction impacts the creator’s reputation score. As reputation grows, users unlock titles and features, like the ability to downvote.

Cirqles introduces a fresh take on social media by rooting interactions in space, not just time – making it both highly contextual and responsibly private. It’s a new kind of network where relevance is determined by where you are, not just who you follow.
