Get the drop
on Mankato

Kato Drop started with a simple problem: it's hard to keep up with what's happening at the local businesses you actually care about. Social feeds bury it. Group texts don't scale. So we built a place for local brands to post a "drop" — today's special, a new drop, an event, what just sold out — and for people to get that drop the moment it happens.

How it works

  • Local brands set up a page and start posting drops in minutes.
  • You follow the ones you care about — no algorithm decides what you see.
  • Drops reach you by email or web push, whichever you choose.
  • No spam: one-tap unsubscribe, and brands only reach people who opted in.

Why Mankato

Kato Drop is Mankato's — its own name, its own brands, its own audience. Not a national app with a Mankato filter on it. Every brand on here is one you actually know, in a town you actually live in.

For brands

Local businesses get their own page and their own following on Kato Drop. A brand reaches everyone who followed it. No algorithm deciding who sees it, nothing to boost.
