The fastest way your team stays truly in sync.
Nearboards gives every person on your WiFi a single shared board — where updates appear instantly, files stay in context, and every post reaches exactly who it should. No group chats. No scattered messages. Just one clear place for everyone in the room.

Why it matters
Your team is in the same room. But scattered messages mean no one has the full picture.
When updates go into group chats, private messages, and verbal handoffs, things fall through the cracks. Nearboards gives everyone on the same WiFi one place to post, read, and act — instantly.
Stop the daily "where is that file?" moment
Everything lives in one place. Updates, files, and context are always together — no more hunting across three apps.
Share confidently, not carelessly
Choose who sees what in a single click. Sensitive updates reach only the right people, automatically.
Everyone knows what to do next
Live updates and clear context mean fewer follow-up messages and faster decisions — across every department.
Core features
Six things that change how your team operates — explained simply.
No jargon. No fluff. Just what each feature does, why it matters, and what it means for your day.
01
One unified workspace for every update
Notes, announcements, files, and decisions all live in a single shared board. Your team stops asking did you see my message? because everything is always visible.
You save hours every week that were lost to duplicate messages and tool-switching.
02
Visibility control built into every post
Share broadly with the whole team, or selectively with just Finance or Leadership. You decide per post — no complex settings, no separate permissions panel.
Confidential updates stay confidential, without any extra work.
03
File sharing that stays in context
Attach contracts, reports, or presentations directly alongside the relevant message. No more hunting for the file I sent last week in a separate drive folder.
Files and their context are always together — your handoffs are cleaner and faster.
04
Real-time activity — see it as it happens
New posts appear the moment they're created, with clear timestamps and sender info. You always know what's current without refreshing or following up.
Decisions move faster because the team is always working from the same live picture.
05
Secure access you can trust
Protected sign-in, session security, and access controls that actually work — built for everyday business use, not just enterprise IT teams.
Your team collaborates confidently, knowing sensitive information is safe.
06
Works for every role, not just developers
Ops, admin, finance, legal, design, and leadership — everyone on your team can use this from day one, with no training required.
The whole organisation moves on the same rhythm, not just the technical teams.
How it works
Three steps to a calmer, clearer team.
There's no learning curve. If you've ever sent a message or shared a file, you already know how to use Nearboards.
01
Open your team's board
Everyone arrives at one shared workspace — no setup, no onboarding maze. The board is your team's new home base.
02
Post an update with context
Write your message, attach any files, and choose who should see it. The whole thing takes under 30 seconds.
03
The right people act immediately
Updates appear live for everyone who should see them. No follow-ups. No confusion about what's current.
Who it's for
Built for every team that depends on clear communication.
If your team shares a physical space and a WiFi connection, this is for you. No technical knowledge needed.
Coordinate without chaos
Approvals, vendor updates, and internal requests — all tracked in one board without long message threads or lost emails.
Align across departments
Keep product, finance, legal, and leadership working from the same source of truth — no matter how large or distributed your team is.
Keep up with the pace
When things move fast, clarity is everything. Nearboards gives high-speed teams the speed and structure they need to stay ahead.
Why Nearboards
The old way costs you more than you realise.
Every message sent in the wrong place — a group chat, a private message, a verbal update — is a moment of clarity your team never gets back.
Trust & reliability
Collaborate with confidence, not caution.
Everything stays on your local network. Only people on your WiFi can see the board — and every post gives you full control over exactly who that means.
Protected sign-in and secure sessions
Verified access for every team member, with session protection built in from the start.
Per-post audience control
Every update can be scoped to exactly the right people — reducing accidental sharing before it happens.
Controlled file access
Clear upload permissions and access controls keep sensitive documents with the right people.
Built for real business usage
Designed for everyday teams — not just technical users — with practical limits that match how real businesses work.
FAQ
Quick answers for anyone evaluating Nearboards.
Common questions from first-time visitors and decision-makers — answered clearly.
Do we need a technical team to set this up?
Not at all. Nearboards is designed for everyday business users. If your team can send an email, they can use this — from day one, with no training or IT support required.
Can we control who sees each update?
Yes. When you create a post, you choose one of two options: share it with everyone currently on the WiFi network, or share it only with specific people you select. That's the full extent of the visibility control — and it's all you need.
How is this different from a group chat?
Group chats show everything to everyone. Nearboards lets you decide per post who sees it — the whole network or just selected people. Plus, files stay attached to the post they belong to, so nothing loses context.
Can people outside our office see the board?
No. The board is only accessible to people connected to the same WiFi network. Anyone outside your local network — whether that's another building, a remote worker, or anyone on mobile data — cannot access it.
Give your team the clarity they've been missing.
Connect to your WiFi, open the board, and your whole team is aligned from the first post. Setup takes under three minutes.
