The Problem Sircles Solves:
Traditional online review platforms, such as Yelp, have faced criticism for their biased algorithms, negativity, and unfair treatment of small businesses. Sircles takes a different approach by promoting positivity and trust. Here’s how it works:

• Recommendations from Friends: Sircles allows users to store their favorite businesses like a digital rolodex. When you recommend a business, it’s publicly displayed for your friends and followers to see. No more negative reviews—just love and positive vibes! 
• A Safe Space: Unlike other platforms, Sircles intentionally excludes negativity, creating a safe environment for users to explore recommendations, share experiences, and connect with their circle of friends.

Founder’s Vision:
As small business owners themselves, the Sircles team understands the challenges faced by local establishments. They aim to empower businesses while providing users with reliable recommendations from people they trust.
