About us

We’re on the
homeowner’s side.

Nearby AI is built by the team behind NewsBreak — 20 million Americans a month. It’s free for homeowners, and nobody gets your number unless you say so.

Why we built it

Asking for help
shouldn’t cost you your phone.

Ask most sites for a pro and your number goes to several of them at once. The phone rings for days, and nobody has told you what’s actually wrong or what the job should cost.

Nearby works the other way round. The answers come first — the likely cause, a fair local price, whether a quote is fair. Then, only if you want one, a pro: one at a time, and only one you approve.

Why trust us

Don’t trust the promises.
Check the rules.

Free for homeowners — always.

Even when the answer is “don’t hire anyone.”

NEVER

Your number passed around

Only businesses you approve.

NEVER

Five contractors calling

One at a time, your pick.

NEVER

Rank for sale

No one pays to be shown first.

What we check — and what we don’t

We check, with the date

  • State license
  • Insurance
  • Business address
  • State complaint record

We don’t check

  • The individual technician at your door
  • Workmanship
  • Their final price

A photo isn’t an inspection. When we can’t tell, we say so.
