Try Tribes

Your neighborhood, traded fairly.

Tribes is the simplest way to swap goods and services with people on your block. List what you have. Name what you want. Our matching engine connects you with neighbors making the perfect two-way exchange. No money required, no clutter, no waste.

WHY TRIBES IS DIFFERENT

Most marketplaces are built around cash. Tribes is built around community. We use a hyperlocal matching algorithm that pairs your offerings with someone's seekings, and back. You get what you need. They get what they need. Everyone gets a friendlier neighborhood.

HOW IT WORKS

1. List an Offering: something you can offer (a power drill, sourdough starter, guitar lessons).
2. List a Seeking: something you need (a ladder, a babysitter, help moving boxes).
3. Get matched: Tribes finds neighbors whose seekings meet your offerings and vice versa.
4. Chat in-app: negotiate without sharing your phone number.
5. Trade: meet up locally, exchange, and rate each other.
