You say you have permit history for consumers to view, but the permit search gets you nowhere. Useless.

This platform is a massive scam that uses unverified AI automation to scrape data and invent arbitrary ratings for businesses. They do not perform any manual verification, personal checking, or quality control. As a result, the profiles they generate are full of inaccurate data, outdated details, and completely fabricated ratings. This is highly damaging to legitimate businesses who have their reputations misrepresented without consent, and it actively deceives consumers who trust these baseless scores. This platform prioritizes mass-automated traffic over truth and ethics. Avoid using or trusting anything listed on this site.

This is the kind on nonsense that drives me crazy as a contractor. I tried to sign up as a handyman, since that is the only catagory somewhat matching the services we peform. Well, it wants me to show permits! I don't need any permitting for the type of work we perform. I don't need a permit to replace rotten siding. I don't need a permit to replace a toilet. I don't need a permit to replace a ceiling fan. I don't need a permit to install an undersink water filter. I don't need a permit to pressure wash a driveway!! I'm also not required to be licensed in our state. I've been in business since 2006 and conduct business in Georgia, Arkansas and Texas. I have never needed to be licensed. I am a registered business with the state and carry full liability insurance. The issue I have is that there is no way around this! You can't email nor call them. You can only TRY to find an answer on their Q&A page! I don't trust anyone or any company that you can't reach if you have a concern or issue. Appears to be worse than Angi, which was involved in a class action law suit for fake leads, which is why we stopped using Angi/HomeAdvisor as a lead source. I'm not saying this is what this company does, I'm just saying to me, it raises a lot of red flags when it's 100% online business that you are providing your banking information to, and you can't talk to a real, live person.

Extremely disappointed with this service. We did not get one project from any lead we pursued. 95% of the time, we never heard back from anyone we called and emailed. Several times, the GC didn't even know how we got their info, the project was incorrect, one was a year old, and often times we had the wrong number. When I signed up a explained to our rep that I wanted to try it for 3 months. We agreed to this verbally, but he stated I didn't request the cancellation in ample time. Complete waste of time and money!

In order to post a review for a different business I have to post a review here. If you own a business and someone wrote a frivolous review there is NO RECOURSE. These kind of websites take advantage of small business owners.

I am writing to formally address a dispute regarding the charges and the current status of our profile on your platform. While we initially appreciated the profile and the content provided, we are concerned about being charged for leads that we never requested. We have previously reached out via email and other contact methods to resolve this issue, but we have not yet seen a satisfactory response or resolution. Furthermore, it has come to our attention that our profile now includes a notice stating that we have not paid. To clarify, we have not processed these payments because the leads were unsolicited. As a busy company, we have not responded to these requests as we are not currently seeking additional jobs. We find it unfair to be charged for services we did not authorize, and we request that you remove the non-payment notice from our profile and cancel any outstanding charges for these unrequested leads.

After waiting over a month for my review to be posted, I gave up. My queries were not answered.

I requested the service to get Contractor bits and at first I seem very quick at wanting to work however, once payment was received the after payment follow up has been none. Several emails were sent. Messages were left. No one response.
