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


Neighborhood social app Nextdoor is launching a redesigned version of its service that it’s calling the “new Nextdoor.”

Launched 15 years ago, Nextdoor has long served as a popular platform for neighborhood conversations, helping users connect over things like recommendations for plumbers and suggestions for nearby places to eat. Tolia noted that publishers are just the first new type of content coming to Nextdoor, as the platform plans to allow small businesses, schools, and organizations to have native presences in the app in the future as well. Tolia noted that Nextdoor’s unique value is in digitizing and capturing local word-of-mouth, the kind of hyperlocal information that isn’t available through platforms like Google or ChatGPT, because you can only get it from direct conversations.
