Looking for neighbors to test new products

Be the first to use new products that make your neighborhood better.

At Neighborhood Studios our goal is to make your neighborhood better with technology.

We have a simple view on how this happens…

1. Develop a unique approach to a problem that you face in your daily lives (e.g. how best to tutor your child, how to renovate your bathroom, what’s an easier way to go grocery shopping).
2. Put that solution into the hands of only a dozen people in a single neighborhood to see if they love it.
3. Use feedback from those neighbors to make the product better.

If you think of the locally-based startups that you might have used in the past (e.g., Nextdoor, Thumbtack, Scoutmob, Uber, Switchyards, Yelp), this is exactly how they all began. These companies had small teams that put their first website or mobile app into the hands of just a dozen of their closest friends to see if they enjoyed using it.

This is how every great local startup began. And this is our exact process at Neighborhood Studios.

Neighborhood Studios incubates neighborhood startups. We are a world class startup team based in Decatur, one of the most iconic neighborhoods in Atlanta. When we have an idea for a great neighborhood product, we email our list of neighbors (we call them “beta testers”) to see who might be interested in testing that new product. You can read more about Neighborhood Studios in this article and our website.

Beta testers are Atlanta residents who enjoy seeing and using new products before anyone else.

Here’s how our beta tester process works…

1. Sign-up here to be a beta tester. Be sure to include your neighborhood.
2. Every month we’ll email you about a product that we plan to test. There’s no obligation. Sometimes it’s just fun reading about new stuff.
3. Be one of the first dozen people to reply and you’ll be selected.
4. Every beta tester will receive perks while working to build products that support your neighborhood.
