This is pretty cool. Unfortunately it's not valuable yet without other people populating it with data. Is there any way you can automatically get a first batch of data into it? Maybe scrape coffee shops from Google Maps and add them as not verified or something like that.



Yes, the backend fetched places from Google whenever there are none listed on Workmode. Had to turn it off because Hackernews slowed down the system OOPS


Makes sense. You should backfill even when there are results. It would be a shame for the first review coming in to become the only listing.
