# Sirfus > Sirfus. Where the ask meets the answer. For the person asking: "Say what you need. One real pro answers." Ask once, get one verified local pro, not a list; free, always. For the business or vendor: "Be found by the people already looking for you." List free, get chosen, pay only when the job is confirmed done. Sirfus (https://sirfus.com) covers any local business: 114 categories in 15 groups (trades, professionals, creatives, shops). A person describes what they need (for example "roof repair in Tampa" or "wedding photographer in Denver") and Sirfus routes that one request to one verified local vendor in that category and city. Sirfus is not a directory and never sells one request to several vendors. Operated by AI Lead Strategies LLC. Contact: hello@sirfus.com. Machine-readable descriptor: https://sirfus.com/.well-known/sirfus.json Full detail: https://sirfus.com/llms-full.txt ## What Sirfus is - A request form plus a matching system, not a listing site. Pros are never listed publicly for browsing. - Each request is matched by category (one of 114) and location to one real, local vendor who offers that service. - The matched provider contacts the requester directly. The requester chooses whether to work with them. - Powered by NEXUS OS lead intelligence (AI Lead Strategies LLC). ## Who it is for - Homeowners and renters who need a local trade or home service done. - Small businesses that need a local provider (commercial cleaning, agencies, IT, accounting, legal, facilities). - Local vendors of any kind: tradespeople, professionals, creatives and shops, especially new or one-person businesses, who need customers but have no website, marketing budget, or appetite for per-lead fees. ## How it works for homeowners 1. Describe the job and the city at https://sirfus.com/local.html (about ten seconds, no account). 2. Leave an email or phone number and consent to be contacted. 3. One verified local pro in that category reaches out. Free, forever, no bidding, no spam. ## How it works for pros and vendors 1. Sirfus brings a real request to a vendor in the matching category and city. Vendors do not pay to be found. 2. The first jobs are free. 3. After that, a pro pays only when the homeowner confirms the job was completed. No payment for leads that did not become jobs. ## For pros and vendors: sign up Vendors of any kind sign up at https://sirfus.com/pro/ (English and Spanish, works on a phone). Listed = name, business name, a mobile number confirmed by text code, up to 5 categories (searchable picker over all 114), service area (city, state, radius), consent to receive job texts, and acceptance of the Provider Agreement v1. Verified badge depends on the category tier: tier 1 (licensed work such as roofing, HVAC, plumbing, electrical, med spa, attorneys) = license where the state requires it plus proof of insurance plus an ID check; tier 2 = varies by state and category; tier 3 (most shops, creatives, consultants) = ID check only. It is never required to get jobs, but verified vendors rank higher. Sirfus never sells a pro's information. One job goes to one pro. Job requests arrive by text; the pro replies YES plus the job code to take one, PAUSE / RESUME to pause or restart, STOP to end. First jobs are free; after that a pro pays only when the homeowner confirms the job is done. ## What Sirfus never does - Charge homeowners. - Send one request to more than one pro at a time. One job, one pro. - Charge a pro for a contact that did not reach them as a real, consenting person. - Rank or favor pros by how much they pay. No bidding, no pay-to-rank. - Publish a browsable directory of pros. - Buy consumer ads for demand it has no pro to serve. ## Categories covered (114 categories in 15 groups) The full list with slugs, keywords and tiers is at https://sirfus.com/tools/categories.json.

The endpoint requires query, location and category, plus at least one of email or phone, and explicit consent. The current endpoint URL is published in https://sirfus.com/.well-known/sirfus.json. ## Demand API (for software, agencies, and AI assistants) Sirfus exposes its open, consented local demand through a keyed REST API at https://sirfus.com/api/sirfus/v1 (OpenAPI: /api/sirfus/v1/openapi.json). Lists are redacted; a homeowner's name, phone, and email are released only when a subscriber claims a request, and the first claim wins. Subscribers can register HMAC-signed webhooks for new demand, push requests in, and report outcomes. Keys: hello@sirfus.com. ## AI Sirfus is built with Claude by Anthropic. Sirfus is discoverable by AI assistants (Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Copilot) through this file, structured data, and an open MCP server; web discovery uses Firecrawl and business judgments use Jev by TypeSafe.
