Location-Based Messaging at Scale
HereCast channels belong to places, not people: the town hall, the water company, the village head, the bakery round the corner. The sender draws an area on the map, and messages reach the people who are in it or follow the channel.
No account needed: you can use HereCast anonymously.
Everything you need to build sophisticated geo-targeted communication systems
Create custom irregular shapes on the map to define precise notification areas. Draw boundaries that match real-world regions.
Organize messages into channels with tags and geographic metadata. Users subscribe to topics that matter to them.
Messages reach users immediately when they enter a zone or subscribe to channels. Built for speed and reliability at scale.
Automatically notify users when they enter a channel's geographic zone. Perfect for hyper-local alerts.
Search and filter channels using custom tags. Find relevant content through smart categorization.
Use HereCast without an account: no email, no name. Create an account later and everything you've done moves with you.

Preventing harmful content is our priority: people should be able to trust what reaches them from the place they're in
Before a publication reaches anyone, an AI model reads it. Hate speech, threats, calls to violence, scams, fake news and claims that contradict science are stopped before they can spread.
The author sees how their publication was rated in every category, and why. When something is stopped, they know exactly what to change: nothing disappears without an explanation.
The check runs on our own model, on our own servers. Publications are not sent to outside AI companies.
An automatic check can be wrong. Anyone can report a publication, our moderators review every report, and accounts that break the rules can be blocked.
AI analyses every publication for all of these and blocks it if it doesn't meet these standards.
Effective local communication rests on trust: clear, checked and honest messages, with open rules for everyone.
