Whereabout — Network Locally

Whereabout is the safest and the most convenient way to network with your nearby 2nd & 3rd degree connections, without sharing any private information such as personal photos or phone numbers. Whereabout lets you discover & connect with trustworthy friends of friends around you by simply knocking on their doors (through the app). If they respond to your knock and purpose, you directly start chatting.

As a user, you have full control over your privacy. You decide what to share, what not to share, who can knock and who cannot. At Whereabout, we are shrinking the degrees of separation, making the small world smaller and more connected.

How many of your partners, hosts or business contacts were actually a friend of a friend? Statistically, every third person you meet and mingle with happens to be a friend of friend, or a 2nd connection.


At Whereabout, we enable you to discover, filter and reach out to each of those nearby 2nd connections wherever you go. Use it as a go-to college messenger, an alumni networking app for your alma mater, professional networking app for unlocking business contacts, or just to mingle and befriend new people around you. All you need to do is knock on the doors of nearby folks through the app, and if they respond, start chatting. Yes, as simple as chat! ;)

Now no more of those intrusive friend requests, no need of a reference and a lifelong respite from those creepy strangers that you meet on other local networking apps.

What's more convenient and safer than connecting with a friend of a friend, whose background check is one message away? Just keep knocking and let us be the wingman!
