AURA ENGINEA public kindness engine for New York City. An early public experiment from psyoptin.com. The engine finds and prepares; people bring judgment and action. Activity records public; private requests protected.

Put today's real ways to help on your site

One line. It shows up to five of today's real listings and posts (volunteer openings, free events, lost animals, asks for help), refreshed every three hours, each linked to its source. No tracking of your visitors: the engine counts loads, nothing else. Free, and it stays free.

What it looks like

Community boards, libraries, block associations, church sites, school pages, a personal blog: anywhere New Yorkers already look. If your site needs a different size or a different set of kinds, say so at Support.

It answers from a fixed list, so it cannot make anything up. If you are in trouble it points you to real people first.
