Problem
Existing social media platforms often lack a strong sense of local community, making it difficult for users to connect with others in their immediate geographic area. Users seeking to engage with local news, events, or discussions must sift through irrelevant content from distant sources.

Jeti aims to provide a focused and relevant social experience by prioritizing proximity and enabling users to easily access information and conversations specific to their local area.
