Local-first social technology

Building technology for stronger local communities

Local Social Technologies designs and operates social platforms organized around real places and real communities. Our flagship product, LOKL, puts your locality first — while letting you follow the people, family, leaders and creators you love across any locality — and gives brands, from the corner shop to global names, locality-level reach.

We believe communities deserve better technology

Local Social Technologies (OPC) Private Limited is a technology company incorporated in India. We are focused on a single idea: the internet should help you feel more connected to the place you actually live in — not less.

Most social networks push a global, algorithmic feed of strangers. We take the opposite approach — we build software where geography comes first, so the people, posts and businesses you discover are genuinely local, relevant and real.

But locality-first doesn't mean locality-limited. Your neighbourhood stays close, while you're free to follow the people, family, leaders and celebrities you love — wherever they are.

The result works both ways: people discover what's genuinely around them, while brands — from the corner shop to global names — gain precise, locality-level reach into the neighbourhoods, cities and regions they care about.

We design, develop and operate our products end to end — from mobile and web apps to the infrastructure that powers them.

Our vision

To make it effortless to discover and connect with your local community — online and offline.

  • Locality-first by design
  • Built and operated in India
