What is Knohow?Knohow is a platform connecting consumers to local service providers for booking, communication, and payment, all accessible through a secure mobile resource. Knohow Members can sign up for free accounts, while service providers, known as Knohow Pros, start with a trial period and then transition to a low-cost monthly fee for access to Knohow’s suite of services and visibility to Members.

What sets Knohow apart from other service platforms?Knohow distinguishes itself by prioritizing connections based on personal trust rather than sheer volume of followers. It frees consumers and service providers from reliance on reviews and paid advertising, instead fostering authentic word-of-mouth recommendations through permission-based sharing of experiences. Users enjoy an ad-free experience and actionable search results, facilitating seamless engagement with new providers.

How does sharing work on Knohow?Members are encouraged to create personal, private networks for sharing experiences and content with their most trusted friends.

Authenticity is maintained through content-sharing approval from both service providers and Members, who have full control over sharing preferences.

What about privacy controls?Knohow provides customizable settings for Members to control the visibility of their information and content on the platform. Members can choose which service providers and content are viewable by others or kept private. Strict security measures, including encrypted account data and verified mobile phone numbers, safeguard personal information. Member mobile phone numbers are not visible to anyone on Knohow.
