How it works

Trusted local discovery in three steps

  1. Follow groups you trust

    Grassroots movements, neighborhood groups, and communities you already care about.

  2. Browse curated directories

    See businesses each group endorses, with partnership tiers, promos, and tags.

  3. Discover through events

    Find sponsors, vendors, and partners at local events — and support them directly.

Community groups

Follow groups you trust

Each group curates a directory of businesses they stand behind — with clear partnership tiers, not generic listings.

Why Presence

Not another map. Curated by your community.

Presence isn't where you search every business in the city. It's where you find value-aligned directories and recommendations from the groups you follow.
