[US] is the social network rooted in the real world. Discover the places around you, find your people, and turn the internet back into a thing that gets you OUT of the house. — PLACES NEAR YOU — A live map of cafés, bars, restaurants, parks, and venues nearby. See who's there right now, what perks they're offering, what events they're hosting tonight. — CHECK IN, GET PERKS — Tap "check in" at any place to unlock that venue's offers: free pour-overs, 2-for-1 vermut, half-off mofongo. Real perks from real businesses, for people who actually show up. — LIVE FEED — See what's happening at the place you're at, in real time. No infinite scroll. No "for you" page. Just your block, your night. — US — Your friends. Their check-ins. Their stories. A clean social feed that ends when the news ends. — GIFTS — Send a rose, a diamond, a donut — small tokens of "I see you" that show up on your friend's profile. Social currency that's actually social. — EVENTS & RSVPS — Salsa Friday at La Placita. Cupping nights at the local roaster. Sunrise hikes through El Yunque. RSVP, see who else is going, and turn up. — NEIGHBORHOOD — Discover who lives within walking distance, what they're posting, and where they're checking in. The block, rediscovered. — DIRECT MESSAGES — Private threads with the people you connect with. No ads. No AI listening in. [US] is built on a simple premise: the internet should make you go somewhere — not stay inside. Real time. Real places. Real people.
