The Whito checks

What we look at before a business appears, and what “Verified” actually means.

Companies House recordWhere we can confirm the registered company, the profile shows its legal name and company number. Where we cannot, it says so.
Registration schemesNICEIC, NAPIT, Gas Safe, ICAEW, GDC and other registers you can check yourself. We show what is claimed and where it is confirmed.
Years tradingIncorporation dates from the public record, plus the firm’s own stated history, clearly separated.
Reviews across the webWe do not host reviews or invent ratings. We point at real signals that already exist, like Google review counts.
Ranking disclosure: Verified businesses appear first, then listings run alphabetically. Paid options are always labelled and never change ranking. If a business asks to be removed, it comes off.

Built for AI search

More people ask ChatGPT, Gemini or Google a question before they ever see a results page. Every Whito listing is published with structured data, verified key facts and plain FAQs, so AI assistants can read it and cite it. Our own research found the three big engines agree on the best local tradesperson just 8% of the time, because there is no trusted source to cite. We are building that source.

Common questions

How are businesses ranked on Whito?

On verifiable signals: Companies House records, registration schemes such as NICEIC and Gas Safe, years trading, and reviews from across the web. Verified businesses appear first, then listings are ordered alphabetically. Position is never for sale.

Do businesses pay to appear here?

No. Listing is free and most businesses are added from public information before they have done anything. Paid options exist for extras like richer profiles, and they are always labelled. Paying never changes where a business ranks. You can read exactly how we make money on our How we make money page.

Are these businesses vetted?

Listings marked “Unclaimed” come from public information and have not been independently checked, though where we could confirm a firm at Companies House its profile says so. When a business claims its listing we confirm its details and a working contact, and mark it “Verified”. We never publish invented reviews or star ratings.

How do I get my business listed?

Use the List your business page. A basic listing is free: we confirm your details and a working contact, then publish your profile with the structured data AI assistants can read.

What does “built for AI search” mean?

Every listing is published with schema.org structured data, verified key facts and plain-English FAQs, and the site publishes an llms.txt index. That makes listings readable and citeable by AI assistants such as ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity, which more people now ask before they search.
