Editorial interest 78/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A local-business directory that keeps listings alive only when someone confirms them from the premises.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-14 issue.

Field notes

The directory uses a location check as part of its data model: a business is added from its premises and must be confirmed there every six months. Search is organized around everyday categories and selectable 1-, 2-, 3-, or 5-mile ranges, while each result is described as carrying a confirmation date. The page lists an Android APK at 43 MB and says an iPhone app is still in progress.
