Sooligan is a mobile app that captures all of the good/bad/funny/rude/nice/mean thoughts & impressions locals have about their city & local businesses as they are happening. We are a digital platform for in-the-moment local information, i.e. instant word-of-mouth. Sooligans don’t just tell you the tacos are great at the restaurant down the street. We tell you the place is packed RIGHT NOW, & they just ran out of your favorite shrimp tacos 2 minutes ago. These types of information are usually only accessible if you have friends or family actually there at the venue or local business. However, most of us don’t have friends everywhere we go. And that’s where Sooligan comes in.
