How Legitopedia Works

Built for trust. Powered by real people.

Legitopedia is a public review platform that helps people share honest experiences about any business in the world. Whether you're booking a service, shopping online, or verifying a provider’s reputation — our goal is to give you reliable insights from real users, not bots or biased reviews.

This page explains how Legitopedia functions, how we verify content, and how both users and businesses can participate.

The Core Platform

Here’s what happens on Legitopedia:

A Business Is Reviewed

Anyone with an account can search for a business and leave a review based on their personal experience — whether it's positive, negative, or neutral. Each review includes:

  • A star rating (1 to 5)
  • A written explanation
  • Optional categories or tags

Verification and Moderation

We use a combination of automated filters, human review, and user flags to detect fake or harmful content. Suspicious reviews may be:

The Review Is Published

Once published, reviews are visible on the business’s profile and indexed for others to read. The reviewer’s name, profile photo (if added), and country are shown publicly to promote accountability.

Businesses Can Respond

Claimed business profiles can reply to any review — whether it’s a thank-you or a public response to criticism. All replies are visible on the review page.

How We Maintain Trust

We take integrity seriously. Here’s how we ensure Legitopedia remains a high-quality platform:

  • Identity Verification: Reviewers must verify their email and sometimes identity (via 2FA or behavior-based trust scores).
  • No Paid Reviews Allowed: Legitopedia prohibits incentivized or sponsored reviews. All user-generated content must be voluntary.
  • AI + Human Moderation: Our team uses machine learning and manual checks to flag fake, abusive, or off-topic content.
  • Transparent History: We show edit histories, timestamps, and reviewer activity to give full context.

  • Respond publicly to reviews
