# VetList.org

A comprehensive AI-powered veterinary directory connecting pet owners with quality veterinary care across North America.

## Site Overview

VetList.org is an AI-consensus directory that asks 10 leading AI models one question per city: "What's the single best veterinarian here?" The business that gets the most votes wins. No paid placements. No gamed reviews.

## Core Concept

Instead of relying on paid listings or user reviews, VetList uses AI consensus from multiple independent models (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, and others). Each model picks independently. The winner is the practice that earns the most AI votes across all models.
