## What is MyKnown?

MyKnown helps you discover trusted local businesses through people you already know — like word-of-mouth, but digital.  Tired of fake reviews and paid promotions? On MyKnown you only see businesses your friends and contacts have personally added to their network. Real trust from real people.  HOW IT WORKS  Sync your contacts privately — your contacts are never stored on our servers. We only check which of them are on MyKnown and add those matches to your network.  When a friend trusts a business enough to add it to their network, you see it when searching. The more friends who trust a business, the higher it appears.  KEY FEATURES  Trust-based search Find businesses recommended by people you actually know, not strangers.  Personal network See exactly who in your network trusts each business — full transparency.  Smart questions Ask your network "anyone know a good doctor?" or "trusted plumber?" Get answers from people you trust.  Business directory List your business and let your network discover you. As more contacts trust your business, more people can find it.  Exclusive offers Business owners share offers directly with their network. See deals from places you already trust.  PRIVACY FIRST  Your contacts are never stored on our servers. We only check which numbers are on MyKnown and add matches to your network. You can review and remove anyone anytime.
