Locals

Locals Technology Inc., or locals.com, is a creator crowdfunding site cofounded by Dave Rubin and Assaf Lev. It started in 2019 and is based in New York City.
The site was founded after Rubin and Jordan Peterson left Patreon in protest of their policies on creator deplatforming. The startup raised just over $1 million from 10 506(b) private placement investors in March 2020.
Assaf Lev is the President and CEO; Lev was previously an executive at [PX]. Andrew Conru is also a director.
Scott Adams, creator of Dilbert has invested in Locals and describes it as the "only platform in which I feel safe expressing my more provocative content in exclusive comics, video lessons, and blog posts".
