For everyone
Ask nearby.
Get going.
Everyday discovery in the distance you choose — in English, Bengali, or a mix.
- Ask in everyday words, in English, Bengali, or a mix, for a plumber, electrician, tutor, cook, shop, food, doctor, transport, and more.
- Businesses and services on a map and in a list, within a distance you choose. Call, WhatsApp, or get directions.
- Offers from shops near you, with dates and terms. Offer alerts can be turned on or off.
- Nearby Now, a local feed of what's happening now or today.
- Trending Nearby, what people around you are looking for.
- Sign in with Google, Apple, or email. Light and dark mode. Public share links open without signing in.
People and community
Neighbours,
with boundaries.
Chats, stories and discussions around you — only with the visibility you choose.
- People nearby, only those who chose to be visible, then a chat. Connect requests can be accepted or declined.
- Find friends from your contacts, and invite chosen friends on WhatsApp. It never messages the whole phonebook.
- Chats, photos, files, and group chats.
- Neighbourhood discussions, a community map with approximate pins, and interests.
- Local Lens: a photo, short video, or update from your area.
- Local Stories and creator reels, and a 24-hour status with music, profile photo, and gallery.
- Report, block, and control who can see you nearby.
Durga Pujo
Follow the lights.
Find the local stories.
Pujo home, pandal pages, Digital Anudaan and Crowd Pulse — when committees add the details.
- Pujo home, pandal list, and map.
- Each Pujo gets its own page: photos, updates, place, timings, theme, and bhog, when the committee adds them.
- Share one Pujo with a code. Visitors can see it without signing in.
- Add a Pujo, suggest an update, or claim the committee's listing.
- Digital Anudaan: the committee's UPI or QR opens the pay app. Money goes straight to the committee. NearPados never holds it.
- Crowd check: low, moderate, high, very high, or no reading yet. It is an area estimate, not a headcount.
- Offers tied to a shop or a Pujo stall during Pujo week.
Crowd Pulse · part of Durga Pujo
Crowd check,
not a headcount.
Custom AI and ML algorithms with geo-spatial mapping estimate area pressure — low, moderate, high, very high, or no reading yet. Not an exact count of people.
- 01See pressure where an estimate is available.
- 02Check when it was last updated.
- 03No reading yet does not mean the place is empty.
Follow guidance from local authorities. NearPados does not replace organiser or emergency instructions.
HOW TO READ IT · ILLUSTRATION, NOT LIVE DATA
A signal, with context.
When a reading is available, check the crowd level and when it was last updated before you plan the visit.
An area estimate, not a countEmergency help
Help when it matters.
Alongside official services.
Official numbers and optional nearby alerts — it does not send police, ambulance or fire.
- Official emergency numbers, national and state.
- Ask people nearby for help, share your location only if you choose, and send a nearby alert. Someone nearby can respond and chat.
- It works alongside police, ambulance, and fire. It does not send them.
