Boilerplate description
SendLoco is a trust-scored map of creator-recommended travel places: restaurants, bars, hotels and experiences indexed from the creator content you already watch, with automated sponsorship labels on every pick.
SendLoco indexes travel creator content from 550+ creator channels, extracts named place recommendations, and assigns each pick a trust status: Independent, Partnership likely, Sponsored, or Partner venue. The result is a searchable, ranked database of real creator picks across 32 cities. Unlike review platforms, SendLoco never accepts payment to improve a venue’s ranking, and the scoring approach is explained on our How it works page.
Story angles
These are the narratives our team is most prepared to support with data, interviews, and product demos.
The creator economy's trust problem
SendLoco quantifies what every travel fan already suspects, that creator picks are increasingly indistinguishable from paid placements. We built the first independent layer to surface that signal.
Video recommendations, not written reviews
Instead of user-written reviews, SendLoco indexes real video recommendations from travel creators, with an automated sponsorship detector that flags likely paid placements.
How we're making travel influencer content trustworthy
Every recommendation on SendLoco carries a trust status: Independent pick, Partnership likely, or Sponsored. We make that disclosure visible and searchable on every pick.
The venue that can't pay its way to the top
Unlike Google, Yelp, and TripAdvisor, SendLoco trust scores are compute-only. No restaurant, hotel, or bar can purchase a better ranking, and we explain how scores work.

- →SendLoco was built by a team that got burned by sponsored travel content. The story of the screenshot problem is relatable and visual.
Brand assets
Approved quotes
“We built SendLoco because the ‘follow for recommendations’ era of travel content is ending. Audiences are getting savvier, they want to know if a creator actually chose a restaurant, or was paid to feature it. We’re building the infrastructure that makes that question answerable.”
“The problem isn’t that creators take sponsorships. They should be able to build businesses. The problem is opacity, when you can’t tell the difference between a genuine pick and a paid placement. We’re fixing the transparency layer, not the creator economy itself.”
“SendLoco is designed so that no venue, no creator, and no amount of money can buy a better rank. The score is computed. It’s public. Anyone can audit it. That’s the only way to build something people will actually trust.”
