Glocal is civic infrastructure that listens responsiblyβ€” transforming participation into trusted insight that strengthens dignity & belonging.

How Glocal works

  • Check In

    Get notified when events you follow begin.

  • Share Experience

    A brief interaction β€” from prompt to reward in under 30 seconds.

  • Earn Aini

    Receive digital currency and redeem it for rewards.

Community participation dashboards  

  • Our process takes 2 minutes and uses geo-location and collecting custom data. No paperwork needed

  • Eliminate event sign-ups everyone! Once people follow you we’ll notify them when it’s time to check in: Then we’ll geo-locate, check-in, and collect feedback from them. No more sign up sheets!

  • Your dashboard lets you see exactly how all your events are unfolding in real-time. Feedback, demographics, check ins, everything you need to understand who is particpating and how they feel

  • We honor & reciprocate when the community shares their experiences. Our in-app wallet is the one place people can get their impact certificates, unlocked rewards, and Ayni balance.
