How it works
Three steps between your couch and a place that’s actually open.
Open OPEN
The map shows what’s open around you right now - no guessing from stale opening hours.
See until when
Every business shows a live status: open until 2:30, closing soon, or temporarily closed.
Go with confidence
Status comes from the owner and is confirmed by the community - with a timestamp.
Opening hours are a promise. A status is a fact.
A timetable tells you what is supposed to happen. OPEN tells you what is happening. The difference is the door that opens when you get there.

Why OPEN?
A live availability layer on top of regular opening hours.
Live status, not a guess
An owner’s update overrides the schedule. “Open until 2:30” means it, from the source.
Community confirmations
People on the spot confirm or report, keeping information fresh and trustworthy.
One-tap extensions
Owners extend opening by 30 minutes or an hour with one tap. No forms.
Honest about unknowns
No fresh info? We show “unknown” - we never wrongly display “closed”.
Professionals: available, not just open
A plumber or an electrician is not “open”, they are available or busy. On OPEN they update it themselves, and you see who is free for a call right now.
Which notifications will you get?
Save a business to favorites - and hear only when something actually happens.
For customers
Only what matters, no noise
A notification arrives when a business you saved posts a live update, changes its opening hours, or opens and closes against its posted hours. Ordinary on-schedule openings and closings send nothing.
For business owners
Your update reaches customers directly
Every update you publish is delivered to the customers who saved you to favorites. Opening or closing against your posted hours notifies them too - so accurate hours are worth more customers at the door.

We are more than an opening-hours app.
We are building the world’s first layer of live information

Freedom for all of us to head out the moment we feel like it.
Come build it with us.
Read our manifestoDo you own a business?
Every live status you have seen so far came from an owner who updated it. Here is what OPEN does for you.
OPEN brings you more customers
One update from you, and you show up wherever people are looking: on your public business page - the one Google crawls - and in the answers AI assistants give, ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini, the moment they are asked.
A public page, built for Google
Every business on OPEN gets its own web page with live status, opening hours and address - built for search engines to read, including structured data (schema.org) that Google understands. Your update lands on that page instantly, and what Google indexes also serves Gemini and Safari search.
Live in AI assistants
OPEN is officially in the ChatGPT app store - installed with one click, no setup. The same live connection also works with Claude and Grok. When someone asks “what’s open right now?” the answer comes from your live status, straight from the source, the moment it’s asked. No waiting for a crawl, nothing to post anywhere else.
How to connect OPEN to your chat assistantWhoever is searching now is leaving now
Nobody searches “what’s open right now” out of curiosity - they already have their keys in hand. The business whose information is current is the one they pick, and that is the difference between a customer at your door and a customer at someone else’s.
One line from you, and every customer knows
Every business on OPEN can post a short live update: a promo happening right now, or whatever customers should know this minute - a temporary closure, for example.
The update shows immediately on the business card in the app, on the public page Google crawls, on the sticker scan page and in AI assistant answers - and expires by itself at the end of the day, so nothing stale is left behind.

Professionals update too: available or busy
A plumber, electrician, handyman, locksmith, private tutor or therapist: on OPEN you tap once to say whether you are available for work right now. Whoever is looking for you sees “available” or “busy” the moment they search - in Google, in the app and in AI assistants.
Availability, not opening hours
Your working hours say when you work. The live status says whether you are free for the next call, and that is what the customer sees. Without your update they see “Working today · availability not updated”, never a guessed “available”.
You come to the customer
Instead of a fixed address you set a service radius. Your exact address is never published, and whoever searches sees that you come to clients in the area, not where you live.
Work online? This is for you too
Freelancers, digital nomads and anyone working remotely update exactly the same thing: available for work right now, from anywhere in the world. Sign up under “Online workers”, and a client who asks their AI assistant who is free right now gets you.
You have a category of your own: Online workers. And if your trade is not on the list, Other profession is open to everyone.

The sign that replaces "back soon"
Every business that joins OPEN can get a sticker sign for the storefront, with its own personal QR code. A customer at the door scans once - and sees what is happening right now.
One scan, everything current
Live status - open, closed or back soon - with the answer to "until when", and the full week of opening hours.
Your message on the door
Stepped out for an hour? Type "back at 17:00" on your phone, and that is exactly what a scanning customer sees. No paper note, no tape.
A call in one tap
The scan page includes a call button, so a customer in a hurry simply phones.
Join OPEN, then email us - and we will send you a sign.
