Nextdoor teams with samdesk to bring safety alerts right in your Nextdoor feed.

Nextdoor and samdesk are teaming up to deliver fast, trustworthy Safety Alerts directly to your neighborhood feed. The power of samdesk is now available to 100M neighbors (and counting) as a core part of the new Nextdoor redesign.

Now when something important happens nearby—like a major road closure, a fast-moving storm, or even a wildfire—you’ll see the alert in seconds in the Nextdoor platform. No more wondering what’s going on or where to look for updates. You’ll have the information you need to stay aware and keep your loved ones safe.

"Nextdoor is built on neighbors helping neighbors,” said Nirav Tolia, CEO, President, Chairperson of the Board of Directors, and Co-Founder of Nextdoor. “By adding samdesk’s real-time alerts to our platform, we make it even easier for people to stay safe, check on loved ones, and rally together when it matters most.”
