Somewhere along the way, we stopped borrowing from each other.
Then we stopped talking to each other.
Let's change that.
That's how communities are built.
Welcome, neighbor
Nabr is a private network for the people on your street. Rebuilding neighborhoods, one connection at a time.
A ladder for an afternoon, a mixer for one cake, a tent for one weekend.

ContinueWhy Nabr exists
Not for sale. Not for rent. Just owned by someone three doors down who isn't using it this weekend.
The average drill is used for twelve minutes in its lifetime. Your street already owns nearly everything you need for a one-off job — it's just sitting in someone else's garage.
The tent you used twice, the folding chairs from the party, the mixer on the top shelf. Lending them out costs you nothing and quietly makes you useful to the people nearby.
How it works
Every member is confirmed as a real neighbor before anything is shared.
List a few things you'd lend and a few things you'd happily help with.
Browse the shelf, or post what you need. Either way, a neighbor replies.
Agree a time, agree the condition, return it, and say thanks in person.
What you get back
Don't buy the thing you'll use once. Nine of them already exist within a four-minute walk.
Actually know the people living around you — including the ones you've waved at for six years.
Share what already exists instead of manufacturing another one and storing it for a decade.
Become known as someone your street can count on. It's the oldest currency there is.

Asks this week
