Welcome to Local Directory AI — what you can build

What is Local Directory AI?

Local Directory AI is a platform for building and running local business directories. Whether you want a restaurant guide, a tradesperson finder, a wellness hub, or a general town directory, you can launch and manage it without writing any code.

What you get out of the box

• A public-facing directory website — your listings, categories, and search, served on your own domain.
• A private admin dashboard — manage listings, submissions, enquiries, branding, and monetization from one place.
• AI-powered tools — generate listing descriptions, draft help articles from support chats, and more.
• Monetization — charge business owners for listing plans via Stripe.
• SEO built in — automatic sitemaps, schema markup, and clean URLs for every listing.

First steps

1. Complete your Setup Checklist (visible on your dashboard Overview).
2. Add a few listings to give your directory some content.
3. Customise your branding so the directory looks like yours.
4. Connect a custom domain when you're ready to go public.
