No uploads, no filters from a camera roll, no AI, no bots — just real people showing you what’s actually happening in Portland right now. Posts expire after 48 hours, so the feed is always what’s happening now, and everyone competes on school, city, state and national leaderboards.

- School vs school — every post counts for your high school or college
- Students-only side that only verified students can see

Why Portland needs a real feed
Search “things to do in Portland” and you’ll get the same recycled listicles, months-old photos and AI-written roundups. None of it tells you what Portland looks like tonight.
That’s the gap Portal fills. Because every post is captured live in the app and pinned to a real location, the Portland portal is a running, honest answer to “what’s it like there right now?” — from The Pearl District to Alberta Arts to Hawthorne.
And because Portal just launched, Portland’s leaderboard is genuinely open: the people posting from Oregon today are the ones who’ll own the top spots when everyone else shows up.
