# Teres
> Make your business AI-ready. Structured business data for AI agents.
Teres provides structured, human-verified business data (services, pricing, hours, FAQs, staff, attributes) for local businesses. Every business listing is manually verified against the business's own website. Each listing includes a `last_verified_at` timestamp so agents can assess data freshness. AI agents can query this data to help users find and learn about businesses.
