@rochelle_yinyi_shen We just launched in SF, expanding in the next few days! Feel free to send him the link (we have most businesses in the system) and he can request edit access directly on his business page!

Hi Jess! Thank you so much for creating this—it says a lot about where your heart is at and your thoughtfulness is something we can all learn a lot from during this time. How can we best support your initiative to help those in need of this service?

@anish_punjabi Thanks Anish :) As local restaurants are scrambling to support themselves, what we can do is help promote whether they are open or not -- our map allows you to filter for restaurants whose status is "unknown" and mark them as "open" or "closed". This way you can ensure your favorites don't get left out!

Jumpstart

Such an excellent product! I've been looking for restaurants near me, but Yelp/Google hasn't been providing accurate information (hours have changed, some places aren't open anymore, etc.), so I've had to rely entirely on word-of-mouth from people who have been recently. I'm definitely going to use this, great idea!

@aoi_senju Thank you very much and for your support! We've found that to be the problem as well. People have been relying on word of mouth like you said, or spreadsheets to get and spread this information, without all the nice UI and search tools that we've grown so accustomed to using. Hopefully we'll make this info more accessible!

I love this idea, thank you so much!! What’s the source you’re using for knowing which businesses are open still?

@telogram Thank you! We have been aggregating data from spreadsheets that people have been donating to us. We also built tools for business owners to directly update their information as things change. Finally we have crowdsourcing built in where users can vote restaurants with unknown status as open/closed. Please go ahead and vote for your local spots if they don't have up to date info.

This is great! I'd love it if there were a way for restaurants to highlight more unusual things they're doing b/c of the quarantine. Like, wine list sell offs, or online events

@shelby_pefley Yes, that's a great idea. We started to allow business owners/managers take control of their page recently, and some of them are adding custom messages to share additional info like promotions, their takeout menu, or just a little 👋to their fans. We just started this, so there aren't too many places with this info, but hopefully as we get connected to more restaurants, it'll become common across all businesses.

Small businesses are disproportionately affected by shelter-in-place, and so many folks are going out of business. Thank you for doing this!

@nkbuduma Thanks for your support! Many restaurants that are temporarily closed just need to know they have a fan base of support... if they expect demand, we can help them re-open for contactless orders :D

Great idea! Local restaurants are really struggling right now, and I'm working on hours accuracy at DoorDash and know how hard it can be to get restaurants' hours correct during this changing time.

@darby_schumacher1 It's difficult but our community has been very strong and helpful, and restaurant owners/managers have been exceptionally receptive in keeping our data up to date. But we're not perfect, if you have any feedback on how we can improve, we'd love to hear expert perspective on this subject matter!
