The build path

    Describe your space. Watch it build.

    Tell NearField what you run — a 1920s theatre lobby, a cigar lounge, a trailhead — and it drafts the whole thing in front of you. Headings, copy, photos, the buttons at the bottom. Then you edit it by talking to it.

    The Ridgeway — Lobby

    from your description

    Tell us about your place

    The Ridgeway is a 1927 movie palace downtown. Gilded lobby, 600 seats, original Wurlitzer organ. Classic film nights on Thursdays, and we rent the room for weddings.

    Draft, then talk to it

    Three ways to move, and none of them start with a blank page

    This is what happens the first time you sign in. It is also what happens every time you add a room, an exhibit or a trail sign afterwards.

    Scaffold

    A few sentences become a whole page.

    Paste a link to your website, or just type what your place is. NearField writes the heading, the intro, the hours, the buttons at the bottom — and each section appears as it's finished, rather than after a spinner. Give it a link and it pulls your colors, your logo and your photos across with the copy.

    Anyone staring at an empty page

    Refine

    Edit it by talking to it.

    "Make the hours section shorter and add a donation button." The chat panel sits under your Experience and answers with the exact list of blocks it wants to change. Nothing moves until you hit Apply, and there's an Undo after you do.

    Anyone who'd rather describe a change than hunt for a field

    Regenerate

    Redo one block. Leave the rest alone.

    Every drafted block carries a small badge: keep it, edit it by hand, or regenerate just that one — optionally telling it what to fix, like "shorter, more playful". The badge also shows its Source, so you can read the sentence on your own site the copy came from.

    Anyone who likes six of the seven sections

    Drafted blocks are ordinary blocks. Nothing is locked, nothing has to stay, and you can ignore all of this and build by hand if you’d rather — all 51 content modules are there either way.

    33 templates

    Or start from a shape that already works.

    A hotel room card, a museum plaque, a food truck window, a church bulletin, a campground site post. Pick the one closest to your space and the draft fills that shape instead of a general one — same sentence from you, better starting point.

    • Each template steers the draft: its own tone, its own must-haves
    • Every block stays editable — a template is a starting point, not a lock
    • Free to build and preview before you buy a single Marker

    Marker Studio

    The tile on the wall gets designed too.

    The other half of a build is the physical Marker. Describe the finish you want, drop in your logo, and the studio designs the overlay — your colors, your artwork, and a real scannable code on the front. It’s free to open and free to preview, and it ships with any paid plan.

    Most platforms put custom hardware design behind their top tier. We put it on the same page as the free preview, because a Marker with someone else’s branding on it never goes on a hotel wall.

    Open the Design Studio

    What you get out of it

    • Your colors and your logo on the face of the tile
    • NFC and a printed QR on the same Marker, so nobody is stuck
    • Design one and copy it across the whole order, or design each tile
    • Preview before you spend anything

    The real question

    “But I need 30 of these.”

    Thirty Markers is not thirty builds. Most of a property runs on a handful of Experiences pointed at from a lot of places, and the number of pages you actually write is smaller than the number of tiles you hang. Here is the honest version of how it goes.

    1

    Many Markers, one Experience.

    A Marker points at an Experience, and any number of Markers can point at the same one. One "Guest Room" Experience serves all 120 doors. Change it once and every tile in the building is showing the new version — no reprinting, no re-tapping.

    2

    Write the ones that differ.

    The lobby, the restaurant, the spa and the trailhead each get their own draft, which is where scaffold and refine earn their keep. That's four pages described in four sentences, not four pages built block by block.

    3

    Relink anything, any time.

    Point a Marker at a different Experience whenever the room changes use. A whole order can also arrive already linked to the Experience you chose when you bought it, so the tiles work the moment they're on the wall.

    And it all lands in one place

    Every Marker on a property rolls up under one Project, with its own Experiences, branding and numbers, managed from one dashboard and one bill. If the same guest taps in two different rooms, NearField Memory is what carries their answers from one to the other.

    What we won’t claim

    There is no button that generates thirty finished Experiences at once. What there is: a draft already written for each page you actually need, a chat panel to fix it, and thirty tiles that can share them.
