Google says open, the door says closed — no trusted source for real hours
“Drove 25 minutes to a shop that Google swore was open. It wasn't. Holiday hours and 'we closed early today' are never right online.”— Google Maps Community ↗
The gap
Google/Yelp hours are owner-maintained and chronically stale. A lightweight 'was it actually open?' crowdsourced confirm/deny (Waze-style for hours) is a niche nobody owns, and it compounds in value with each report.

Anyone relying on posted business hours
Paste-ready build prompt
Build a crowdsourced 'is it actually open?' app in Next.js. Users search a place, see its posted hours plus recent community reports ('confirmed open 10m ago' / 'closed early today'). Anyone can drop a one-tap report. Start with a seeded list of places — skip the Maps API initially. First 3 steps: (1) place list + detail page showing posted hours, (2) a one-tap report endpoint (open/closed + timestamp), (3) a freshness-weighted 'community status' badge that overrides stale posted hours.
