Nextdoor redesigns app with AI recommendations, local news, and real-time emergency alerts

Neighborhood Social Application NextDoor presents a revised version of the service called “New NextDoor”. The application adds a feature of EU-power called “Faves” designed to find local news, real-time warnings and locals and spots. NextDoor also updated its common design to look more modern.

Launched 15 years ago, NextDoor serves as a famous platform for neighborhood conversations, help users close things like recommendations for plumbers and suggestions for nearby locations. However, as a result, growth has stopped and relevant to the platform containing a repentant platform Invalid information and racism.

Now looking for company turn things into And attract more users by doing the platform more useful, useful and timely. This redesigned, LexTDOOR, the next CEO and co-founder Nirav Tolia Techcrunch, to increase the quality and amount of local data on the platform.

To bring news to the platform, NextDoor, United States, United Kingdom, United Kingdom, United Kingdom and Canada, partnered with 3,500 local publications. Outstanding stores include San Francisco Standard, London Standard and Toronto Star.

“This is why it is so important for us, Nextdoor, 100% of the content created by the user, only trusted the content created by your neighbors,” Tolia said. “It was a great source of information. However, this is really the first time we use to make third-party publishing houses.”

Tolia said they had no commercial contracts, because the next time there are no propagandists who do not pay the content or pay the company. In addition, the next time does not host the content; It is simply a title, a piece and an image and publication of traffic. Users will be able to discuss the news in the commentary section under each article.

Tolia, ports, platform not only planned to allow small businesses, schools and organizations to allow local work to local work in the future, it was the first new content of the next new content.

In terms of new warnings, NextDoor now shows real-time updates related to things like air, transport, power outage, storms and wild fires. These warnings will appear on a dynamic neighborhood map, allow neighbors to allow timely conversations on security and preparation.

The service is a partner with Samdesk and Weather.com, which is the application of the air canal Weather.comStrengthen these warnings.

“When there is something worth paying attention, we call the yellow state and we will put this warning on the right,” Tolia said. “When there is something critical, we will call the red condition and take the whole application, because at this point, you do not care for a new restaurant review of local publishers, and in some cases of each other’s life.”

Tolia noted that these warnings are hyper localized because it is based on the next place platform. Thus, unlike amber signals sent to everyone in a certain place, NextDoor says they can personalize their signals until home. For example, if there is a power outage, the application will only send the signal to people with power.

As for the start of the faves, Tolia says the recommendations of neighbors are more valuable than google or chatgpt to find a local restaurant or a place to spend time with family with family. The features of the new faves are demonstrating lists made of recommendations and ask you to ask special questions to get offers at the same time.

“We have a LLM for every neighborhood we have received 15 years of neighboring conversations, and now we can really respond to questions about this information in an attractive way,” Tolia said. “Thus, the first is the first really local AI, equipped with neighboring conversations, as far as we know.”

You can ask questions like, “What is the best place for the hike with children?” and receive a fast, generalized answer that draws information from the articles of real users in NextDoor. Under the summary, you can see and click on the posts referring to the summary.

“This content is meloddiy in the next turn,” Tolia said. “We’ve never shared. This is not indexed by Google. We can be targeted in Chatgpt and know the information in the most appropriate way as we know you live again.”

Tolia, the unique value of NextDoor, can be obtained from direct conversations because of digitalizing and capturing hyperlocal data, which are not available through platforms such as local word-mouth, Google or Chatgpt.

“I give a funny example, if you want to know all the lemonade stands in the neighborhood, google maps and you won’t find it,” he said. “You can’t go to Print -On and this question, isn’t it?
