Curated for what type of person specifically? What's the business model? Who produces content, and what's their incentive to do so?

@drewmeyers Hi Drew- thanks for the interest in our product. Curation for our app means we filter out all restaurants that aren't local, so no national chains or fast food. We go neighborhood by neighborhood identifying these places then we create original content around each listing. We employ local bloggers and food writers who already have this knowledge. We then learn your "likes and dislikes" to recommend things similar through our learning algorithms.

@ellen_prinzi1 and you pay all those locals providing content a salary? How do you make money?

@drewmeyers the freelance writers we use do get paid. We monetize through sponsored listings and affiliate marketing.
