Hoplr for local governments
Hoplr connects everyday neighbourhood life with your municipality's ambitions. Bring neighbours together, share relevant information and give residents a voice in local policy.
A European platform. Without adverts.
A neighbourhood that knows each other.
A municipality that can build on it.
What does your municipality want to strengthen?
An active neighbourhood network is the foundation. Your municipality joins in with targeted communication and its own participation platform.
Give residents a place to ask for help, share things and meet each other. Through the Hoplr app, contact grows between people who live close to each other.
From roadworks to an invitation to a neighbourhood get-together: reach the right residents from one dashboard, through neighbourhood posts, app notifications and email.
Give plans and participation a public place in your own house style. Collect ideas, run surveys and show what happens with residents' input.

The power of the combination
Residents come to Hoplr for a practical question, a neighbourhood activity or a helping hand. That everyday contact also gives your municipal communication and participation a trusted place.
So you build on existing relationships in the neighbourhood. For a new project, you don't have to rebuild contact with residents from scratch every time.

Good to know
You'll find more details about the platform, our support and the possibilities for your municipality on our services website.
Read our white papersHoplr combines a neighbourhood network for residents with professional tools for local communication and citizen participation. Residents find each other in the neighbourhood app; your municipality reaches neighbourhoods and target groups and organises participation through its own platform.
See the platform ↗Hoplr guides the launch, trains your team and takes care of moderating the neighbourhood network. Together we decide on the neighbourhoods, the partners involved and the launch approach. The support is tailored in your proposal.
More about the approach ↗The neighbourhood network is free for residents. Municipalities choose a paid plan with the features and support they need. Compare Essential and Premium and ask for a tailored proposal.
See the pricing plans ↗No. As a municipality you can publish official messages, but that doesn't give you access to residents' conversations with each other. The neighbourhood network is ad-free.
How Mechelen explains this ↗Yes. Welfare organisations and community workers can connect requests for help with volunteers. Associations can make their work and activities visible through their own page, connected to the neighbourhood.
