## Description

See how busy the block around you is, not just the venues. Plus @usernames, friends' report history, and every library in New York — all 729 of them.

Is it packed right now?

You're outside a bar deciding whether to bother. Eyeing a forty-minute line for froyo. Wondering if the museum is a mistake on a Saturday. Crowded tells you before you go.

HOW IT WORKS

Open the map and see how busy places are across New York — bars, restaurants, cafes, clubs, museums, gyms, parks, anywhere a line forms. Three levels, no guesswork:

- Empty
- Moderate
- Crowded

Every level comes from someone who was standing there minutes ago.

VENUES CAN'T PAY TO LOOK BUSY

This is the part that matters. A place cannot set its own crowd level. It cannot pay to look packed on a dead night, and it cannot pay to look quiet when there's a line down the block. The only thing that moves the number is a report from someone at the door — we check you're actually there before a report counts.

WHAT'S THE VIBE

Reports can carry vibes, picked from a vocabulary we wrote:

- Walked right in
- 20 min for a drink
- DJ's cooking
- Line out the door
- Door's picky tonight
- Outlets are gold dust
- Quiet enough for a date
- Skip it tonight

One-click, real data, no bots.

FEED

See it, don't just read it. Photos from people standing in the room right now — a line down the block, a half-empty bar, a park in full swing. Camera only, never your photo library. Faces are blurred on your phone before a photo is ever sent, and every photo disappears on its own.

BOUNTIES

Wondering about somewhere nobody's checked? Put a bounty on it. Someone nearby can answer, and earns Cred for it.

CRED

Cred is earned, never bought. A point for every report you file from the spot, five for filling someone's bounty. There's nothing to buy and nothing to unlock — it's just proof you're one of the people keeping the city honest. Browsing is always free.

TYPICAL CROWDS

No live report yet? See what a place is usually like at this hour, on this day, so you're never staring at a blank.

BADGES

Report at dawn, close down a block, cover all five boroughs. Some are obvious. Some you'll find by accident.

NEW YORK ONLY

Crowded covers the five boroughs and nowhere else. It's built for one city, by two people who live here, and it works best when you're standing in it.

WHAT WE DON'T DO

No comment sections. No follower counts. No ads dressed up as recommendations. No venue paying for a better number. You look, you go, you get on with your night.

Check Crowded!
