About Reedleys
Reedleys is a global business and professional index built on one idea: trust should be clear, verifiable, and easy to assess - for anyone, anywhere.
An independent index of businesses and professionals
The web is full of claims - "trusted", "certified", "top-rated" - that mean whatever the seller wants them to mean. Reedleys exists to replace claims with evidence.
We maintain a public directory where organisations and individual professionals are listed, reviewed by real customers, verified against real documents, and - where they choose to be assessed - awarded a recognition status against a published standard.
We are not a marketplace and we do not sell courses or leads by the piece. Businesses cannot buy a rating: verification checks facts, recognition is earned through assessment, and reviews stay with the profile either way.
How to read the Reedleys brand
You will see three Reedleys names across the site. Each one refers to a different part of what we do.
Reedleys Index
The directory itself - the searchable catalogue of businesses and professionals, with profiles, reviews, photos, and service details.
Reedleys Authority
The body behind the index - the team and the published standards that govern how verification and assessment are carried out.
Reedleys Recognition
The status a business or professional earns by passing assessment - shown as a badge, a public rating, and a verifiable certificate.
The legal entity behind all three is Reedleys Ltd.
From a listing to a recognized profile
Every profile in the index sits somewhere on this path. Each step is optional - and each one is checked.
Listed
A business or professional appears in the index with its public details, category, and location.
Claimed & verified
The owner proves control of the business - by domain, phone, or identity documents - and earns the Verified badge.
Assessed
Recognized applicants are reviewed against the published Reedleys Standard - credentials, conduct, and track record.
Recognized
A passing assessment earns the Recognition rating and a certificate anyone can check on our verification page.
Three rules we do not bend
Clear standards
Verification and recognition follow structured, published criteria - the same for a one-person studio and a national chain.
Two levels of trust
Verified confirms identity and ownership. Recognized reflects a broader review of a business or professional's credentials. Neither is for sale.
Transparent profiles
Ratings, credentials, services, pricing, and customer reviews are brought together in one place - including the reviews a business would rather hide.
