Reporting a place / suggesting a new one

How you get here: the Suggest a place (map-pin-plus) icon in the Discover header, or Suggest an edit on a restaurant profile. Requires an account? Yes.


What this is

The crowd-correction path for listings. Plaum lists restaurants whether or not the business has claimed them, so listings drift — this is how diners fix them.

Two modes, from the same screen:

Mode Title Subtitle
Fixing an existing place Suggest an Edit Help us keep {name} accurate
Adding a missing one Suggest a Place —

Mode 1 — Suggest an edit

Accuracy

Three yes/no checks, each with a plain explanation of what's being asked:

Question What it means
Location was accurate The address and pin matched the real location
Found what the app showed Menu, dishes, and offering matched reality
Prices matched In-person prices matched what was listed

Answering is quick, and the three cover the failure modes that actually matter to someone standing outside a restaurant.

Price correction

Correct price (optional) — validated: "Enter a valid price greater than 0."

Suggest a new item
