The problem

Your street already shares. You just have no system for it.

You lend your ladder to Dave, your pressure washer to the Nguyens, and you borrowed Mike's tile saw last spring. All of it managed over text threads and memory. Borrowhood Neighbours gives your block a proper system — private, simple, and built for people who already trust each other.

Community sharing
Why neighbourhoods?

The everyday sharing that happens on every street — finally organized

Neighbours already share informally. Ladders, pressure washers, tile saws, trailers, camping gear. It happens constantly over texts and Facebook groups. And until now, zero purpose-built software to manage any of it.

Works on every phone, right from the browser

Borrowhood is a progressive web app. Members open the link in Safari or Chrome, add it to their home screen, and it works exactly like a native app — including camera access for listing items. No App Store friction, no Android vs iOS headaches.

Yes, completely. Your group is invite-link only — nobody can browse it, search for it, or find your neighbours from outside. No public marketplace, no public profiles.
One person sets up the group and shares the invite link — that's it. They can also be an admin who manages group-owned items. Everyone else is self-serve.
No. Borrowhood is a progressive web app — it works in any mobile browser. Members can add it to their home screen for an app-like experience. Nothing to download from the App Store or Google Play.
Borrowhood keeps a full borrow record and history, which helps resolve any disputes. Your group sets its own norms — we handle the logistics, not the liability.
Absolutely — Borrowhood Neighbours is built exactly for this. Any group of people who know each other can set one up in minutes. Cul-de-sac, street, friend group, doesn't matter.
Everything. Full access, unlimited members, no limitations for 15 days. No credit card required. After that it's $5/person per month or $20/month for a group of up to 5.
