Proof of real work, with the source and date.

For businesses

About LocalProof

Every directory calls its businesses "experienced" and "trusted". We show the records instead: what the business has done, where that is written down, and when we looked.

What we do

We look for proof of real work: permits a business has pulled, customers who keep reviewing it year after year, and its entries on public registers. Each line carries its source and date.

We don't rate workmanship. What a business only says about itself is shown too, labelled as a claim.

Who we are

A small editorial team sets the rules, reviews every list and handles corrections. The people who match records can't see which businesses pay us.
