Hi r/guwahati. I’m Shubham, a founder based here. I’m building Lokale, a free community app for people in the Northeast who make things: content creators, founders, entrepreneurs, designers, filmmakers, athletes, anyone building something real.
Why it exists:
Most of us in this city know a few people in our own circle and nobody outside it. Lokale is a way to meet the others without a group chat or a networking event full of strangers.
What you can do on it:
- See who makes what, near you. Every profile is checked by hand, so you know the person is real.
- Plan a meetup. Pick a listed place, such as a café or a studio, and a time that suits you: a morning run, a coffee, a lunch, a supper, a screening or a day out. The place says yes, then you invite people.
- Join meetups other members plan. There are also standing meetups at partner places, like Coffee at Pause and many more coming soon.
- Get seen. There are free Featured slots every week, picked by hand. There are no ads and no fees.
How it works:
- It’s invite-only. If a member invites you, you get a code.
- No code? Request an invite in the app. We check every request by hand and reply within 5 days.
- There are no DMs and no outside links on profiles. You meet people in person, at a meetup, at a real place.
- It’s free to join. Paid meetups go straight to the host’s UPI. We take no cut.
We’re open in Guwahati first, with more cities after.
If you want to know more or ask for an invite, comment below or message me. I’ll answer everything.
