Features

Built on presence, not popularity.

Google Maps shows you where. Knoted shows you what people who stood there actually know.

GPS-Pinned

Every tip is locked to exact coordinates. Not a neighborhood. Not a zip code. The actual spot.

Presence-Gated

You have to physically walk to a tip to vote on it. 100m or less. No remote opinions allowed.

Self-Cleaning

Tips nobody confirms vanish after 60 days. One upvote makes it permanent. The map stays honest.

Tagged by type

Six tags: Parking, Food, Tip, Warning, Restroom, Shortcut. You know what you're looking at before you tap.

Background Nudges

Walk into a neighborhood with tips? You'll get a tap even when the app is closed.

Zero Identity

No accounts, profiles, or followers. Your device gets an anonymous ID stored on-device only.

Watch it work

What Google Maps doesn't know.

The hidden parking spot. The shortcut nobody posts about. The ATM you shouldn't use. GPS-locked tips from people who were actually standing there.

How it works

Three moves. That's it.

01

Drop a tip

See something worth knowing? Tap drop. Write up to 140 characters. Tag it. Your GPS locks it to the exact spot. Done in 10 seconds.

02

Walk and discover

Tips appear as you move. Parking hacks, food finds, shortcuts, warnings — all from people who stood exactly where you are.

03

Be there to confirm it

Walk to the spot and vote. Accurate tip? Upvote — it lives forever. Outdated? Downvote — it decays. Presence is the only proof.

Tip types

Six tags. One for everything.
