Quokalm: Calm Spots Map

Quiet places and care venues: know the sensory vibe before you walk in.

The map of quiet places, built for neurodivergent people and useful for everyone.

Autistic, ADHD, highly sensitive... or just worn down by everyday noise? Quokalm helps you find a calm, low-stimulation spot near you in seconds, and know what to expect before you walk through the door.

WHAT QUOKALM DOES

• Interactive map: explore quiet spots around you in real time
• Sensory filters: quiet, dim lighting, few people, no loud music, well-spaced tables, comfortable temperature, calm outdoor area...
• Calm hours: know exactly when a place is at its quietest, reported by the community
• Busy hours: skip the crowded slots thanks to community reports
• Current vibe: report or check what is actually going on in a specific time slot
• Temporary alerts: roadworks, events, protests, noise disturbance, flagged by the community and removed as soon as they are over
• Community photos: see what a place really looks like before going
• Real noise levels: decibel readings contributed by users
• Toilet accessibility: know in advance what is waiting for you
• Comments: feedback from other people who get it

HEALTH MODE

Waiting rooms are often the worst part of an appointment: strip lighting, noise, crowds, waiting. Quokalm lets you prepare for that ahead of time.

• Hospitals, practitioners, pharmacies and wellness venues, on a map kept separate from leisure places
• Dedicated tags: spacious waiting room, easy access, invisible disabilities taken into account, dim lighting
• Hospitals can be documented department by department (emergency, neurology...)
• Community impressions of the welcome, only ever shown as a collective, anonymous average

BUILT FOR NEURODIVERGENT PEOPLE

Quokalm was designed with autistic, ADHD and highly sensitive people in mind. Every feature comes back to one question: is this place actually bearable right now?

But quiet is for everyone. Remote workers, students, parents, travellers... anyone who has ever walked into a cafe and immediately wanted to leave will feel at home here.

HOW IT WORKS

Every spot is added by real people, and every sensory tag is voted on by the community: that vote is what makes the information reliable.

IMPORTANT

Quokalm is not a medical device and does not diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease or condition. The information published is contributed by the community: it describes the sensory environment and accessibility of a place, never the quality of the care provided there. Always consult a healthcare professional for any medical advice, diagnosis or treatment. Available in French, English, Spanish, Portuguese and Italian. Free, built with love for the neurodivergent community and everyone who loves quiet.
