Seattle, right now.
Seattle is live on Portal. Capitol Hill, Pike Place and Ballard, posted live by people who are actually there.
The first social network you can trust.
Portal is a camera-only social app: every photo and video is filmed live inside the app and tagged to the place it was taken. No uploads, no filters from a camera roll, no AI, no bots — just real people showing you what’s actually happening in Seattle 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.
- 100% camera-only — nothing can be uploaded or faked
- School vs school — every post counts for your high school or college
- Students-only side that only verified students can see
- Leaderboards just launched, so top spots are wide open

Why Seattle needs a real feed
Seattle moves fast — what was packed last weekend is dead this weekend. Static reviews and old photos can’t keep up with a city like this.
On Portal, Seattle tells its own story in real time. Locals film what’s in front of them — Pike Place Market, Capitol Hill, Ballard — and it lands in the Seattle feed instantly, then expires in 48 hours so nothing goes stale.
And because Portal just launched, Seattle’s leaderboard is genuinely open: the people posting from Washington today are the ones who’ll own the top spots when everyone else shows up.
