Does a checked listing make ChatGPT recommend me?
No. It gives apps a phone number, hours, and service area they are allowed to repeat. They still choose whether to name you.
Questions
What people ask before they claim.
Short answers. The check is free. Publishing a checked listing is paid. A lookup is a different product.
What does the free check do?
It looks up FactRoster only. If you are not on the list, that is the result. It does not call ChatGPT or Claude.
Why isn't every local business already on the list?
A scraped directory goes stale and is not a check. The list starts empty on purpose and grows from claims we can stand behind.
What happens after I claim?
The listing stays pending and off the public list until it is verified. AI apps cannot use a pending claim.
Is card billing on?
No. The price is published so you know it. A claim can still be checked and saved as pending when the database is connected.
I build an app. Can I use the same login as a business?
No. A business claim cannot become a lookup key. A lookup can only read verified public facts. It cannot edit a listing.
How do I reach you?
There is no separate inbox yet. Start with the free check or the claim form. Those are the paths that create a listing.
