A clean, global directory of local businesses

We aggregate publicly available business information for cities and categories around the world and organise it into clean, browseable pages. A user looking for the best dentists in Berlin, hair salons in São Paulo, or coffee shops in Tokyo gets the same uncluttered experience: the basics first, sources cited, no sign-up walls.

Local search is broken. Generic directories bury essentials behind popups, modal sign-up gates, and rows of indistinguishable ads. We chose the opposite: at most one ad slot per page, no email-capture popups, no “upgrade to see hours” gates. Just the information you came for, presented well.

• Public data, source-cited. Listings are sourced from publicly available business profiles via licensed data providers and refreshed on a recurring schedule.
• Transparent ranking. Every list is built from public data and can be sorted by rating or review count — and no business can pay for placement.
• Owner-friendly. Business owners can claim, edit, or remove any listing at any time, free of charge — see Methodology.

We do not publish paid placements, sponsored rankings, or hidden affiliate recommendations. When advertising appears on the Service it is clearly labelled and served by Google AdSense. Editorial content (rankings, summaries, methodology) is independent of advertising.

The Service is global. New cities and categories are added continuously; if a listing in your area is missing, you can request it via the claim form.
