Guardianship · by location
No one should learn about
a threat near home by accident.
Shamar gathers antisemitic incidents and threats from official crime reports, news media, and neighbors on the ground — then tells you the moment one is reported near the places you love.
Free to search, no account needed · Alerts require a watchlist
Three source tiers
Official crime reports, national and local news media, and community submissions — each incident is labeled with the source it came from.
A radius per place
Home, work, school, shul — choose how many miles around each one should count as nearby.
Reviewed by people
Community reports appear immediately but stay marked unverified until a moderator confirms or rejects them.
How it works
Built around places, not noise.
Save the places that matter
Add home, a parent's apartment, the kids' school, your shul. Any address, ZIP code, city, or state becomes a watched location.
Set the distance and the categories
Choose a radius for each place and mute the incident types you don't want to hear about, so alerts stay meaningful.
Hear about it while it still matters
When a matching incident is reported nearby, it lands in your watchlist with its source and distance from that place.
The watchlist
Every alert tells you where, how far, and how it was known.
Official reports arrive slowly but carry weight. Community reports arrive fast and are marked unverified until a moderator reviews them. You always see which one you are reading.

Illustrative examples
Our sources
Not all reports deserve the same confidence.
Duplicate reports of the same event across outlets are merged, so one incident appears once.
Official crime reports
Verified official
Hate-crime records and police reports, where agencies publish them. The slowest and the most authoritative.
News media
Verified media
National and local reporting on incidents and threats, gathered on a schedule and matched to a location.
Community reports
Unverified until reviewed
Submitted by people who live there. Published immediately, clearly labeled, and reviewed by moderators.
Add one place. That is the whole setup.
You can add the rest later. Alerts stay quiet until something is actually reported nearby.
