Put Your Community Back in People’s Lives.
Xplore Local is the hub where locals and visitors connect with your independents, events, and stories — so your community isn’t just seen, but experienced.

Communities are losing their connection — and their value.
Busy lives, noisy social feeds, and overflowing inboxes make it harder than ever for people to feel part of their own community. Meanwhile, global giants continue to pull money out of local economies at record speed — leaving independents fighting for survival and neighbourhoods losing their character.
Xplore changes that. We create a single, trusted digital home for your community — showcasing independents, local events, and neighbourhood stories — so connection, pride, and local prosperity can thrive again.
Together, we can cut through the noise, stand with independents, and put your community back on the map where it belongs.
How Xplore Works for Your Community
A Single Digital Home
Xplore creates one trusted platform where residents, visitors, and independents connect — reducing reliance on fragmented channels like social media, websites and emails.
Cut Through the Noise
With lives busier than ever, locals miss what matters. Xplore delivers clear, relevant updates — helping people stay connected to their community without distraction.
Build Belonging & Pride
By showcasing independents, events, and neighbourhood stories, Xplore strengthens identity, drives local spend, and helps people feel rooted in where they live. Like we use to!
Here’s what you unlock when your community joins Xplore.

How We Decide Where to Launch
At Xplore, we don’t choose communities from the top down — independents do.
Our mission is to build digital homes for independent communities, but only where there’s enough support from the businesses themselves. That’s why we’ve created a simple, transparent voting system:
Independents Vote
Every independent business in a town can vote on whether they want Xplore to launch there.
Results Are Public
Votes are visible in real time, so the whole community can see who’s backing it and how much support there is.
Majority Rules
When the majority of independents in a community support it, we commit resources and launch Xplore locally. If not, we wait until the time feels right.
This way, no community gets Xplore unless the independents themselves want it. The decision stays 100% in local hands.
Do nothing, and nothing changes
Communities don’t reconnect by chance — they need action. As a Council, BID, or place-maker, you have the opportunity to lead that change today. By working with Xplore, you can unite independents, strengthen local pride, and give people a reason to choose local again.
