Public web · not a guessed ChatGPT quote

The public-web dossier and rank for a local professional.

Type a name, city, and profession. We search the open web for “best [profession] in [city]”, read directories and the person’s site, and return a city rank card — plus whether they read expensive. We will not tell you what they charge.

How it works

Three fields. Live pages. A rank you can audit.

1. You type

Name, city, profession, optional website. That is the whole brief.

2. We search

Four queries: best-in-city, near-city, name, reviews. Then the website if you gave one. DuckDuckGo / Bing HTML via a worker when deployed — no paid key.

3. You get a dossier

Appearance, who showed up instead, five dimensions, a city rank card, five ways to climb. On-screen. Print if you want — we are not selling a PDF.

What we score

Five dimensions. Missing stays missing.

Quality

Published ratings, review volume, awards, press, portfolio, credentials. If a page did not state a number, we leave it blank.

Price signal

Expensive / Average / Affordable / No signal. Inferred from review language, or classified against peers then the dollar amount is thrown away. Thin data → No signal. Never a fake “expensive” for flavor.

Satisfaction

Review themes, recency, complaint patterns. Not a star we made up.

Recommendations

Who cites them: directories, “best of” lists, press. If they are absent from the listicle that ranks, we name that URL.

Visibility

The original question: do they appear for “best [profession] in [city]”? Count of mentions. Not “you rank #3”.

City rank card

Subject vs 4–8 others from the same search. Weights on the page. If we lack three dimensions, the row says insufficient data.

Real example — not a composite
