The problem

What’s broken about every other directory

You already know. We’ve heard it from every pro we’ve talked to.

Pain #1
Pay-per-lead, but no quality filter
Thumbtack-style platforms send 5+ pros at every job. You compete on price. Your CAC explodes. The customer ghosts everyone but the cheapest bid — and you still got charged.
Pain #2
The customer relationship is rented, not owned
Even when you close the job, the customer goes back to the platform for the next one. You’re a vendor, not a brand. Five years of work — zero compounding.
Pain #3
Reviews live somewhere you don’t control
When the platform shuts down (or doubles your fees), you lose 200 5-star reviews you spent years earning. Your reputation walks out the door with theirs.

The flip

We built this for trade pros, not for advertisers.

Same problem space, opposite incentives. We make money when you renew — not when you keep losing leads.

The plan

Three steps to live and getting leads

Most pros are verified within 48 hours and getting leads in their first week.

Step 01

Verify
Submit your state license + proof of insurance. We check it once; you wear the verified badge forever. Most approvals happen within 24–48 hours.

Step 02

List
Activate your industry-specific listing. We pull your pin onto the local map, set up your service area, and import your existing reviews if you have them.

Step 03

Get leads + close them
Customer leads land in your inbox. Use built-in templates to follow up. Mark won/lost. We track your pipeline so you don't have to bolt on a separate CRM.
