Early access · Canadian launch cities

Every pro, vetted.

Finding the right local professional shouldn’t mean searching endless directories. Vetta is a swipe-through marketplace of vetted professionals — answer a one-minute quiz, review the fit signals on each card, and chat after a pro accepts your request.

Now serving Toronto & the GTA, Vancouver, Calgary, Edmonton, Saskatoon, Winnipeg, Montreal, Ottawa. More Canadian cities are coming soon; expansion to the USA comes later.

Save your spot — free for consumers

We’ll email you when verified pros near you go live. No spam, ever.

Why this needs to exist

Hiring a professional is broken in three specific ways.

Not vaguely broken — broken in ways you can name. Each one is a deliberate design decision somebody else made, and each one is a decision we made differently.

01

Lead auctions

Your request gets sold five times

Bark and Thumbtack charge pros $10–50 for the same enquiry, then sell it to four of their competitors. You get five cold calls; the pro gets a bill. Nobody enjoys that transaction.

02

Endless directories

Four hundred identical listings

Psychology Today will happily show you every therapist in your postal code, sorted by nothing in particular, described in language they wrote themselves. Choice without confidence is just work.

03

Nobody checks

"Verified" usually means "paid"

Most badges you see online confirm an email address, not a licence. We check every regulated professional against their provincial regulator’s public register before they appear in a single deck.

How it works

Three steps, about a minute.

  1. Anxiety & stressEveningsDirect billing

    Tell us what fits

    Pick a category and answer a short quiz — goals, budget, language, in-person or virtual.

  2. Swipe the shortlist

    Every card is a verified pro who matches your answers, with the reasoning right on the card.

  3. It’s a fit

    Swipe right to send a request. When the pro accepts, chat opens so you can decide the next step together.

What you get

Choice, with confidence attached.

A one-minute quiz

Goals, budget band, language, virtual or in-person. It decides who is in your deck, and the card tells you why.

Shortlist and compare

Save anyone without notifying them, then put your favourites side by side on the things that actually differ.

Double opt-in

A request is an invitation, not a lead. The pro accepts, and only then does chat open. Requests expire after 48 hours.

No stars in regulated health

Canadian health-college advertising rules can prohibit testimonials, so regulated health profiles show credentials and response times instead.

Free, and private

Consumers never pay. Category-level signals are never sent to ad platforms — the mistake that cost BetterHelp $7.8M.

Checked at the source

Licence numbers verified against the provincial regulator’s public register, and re-checked every year.

Categories

One app, every kind of pro.

Every category is browsable from day one. Where we haven’t finished verifying pros near you, you’ll see an honest empty state rather than a padded list.

Trust

Verified means verified.

Every regulated professional on Vetta is checked against their provincial regulator’s public register — licence number and all — before they appear in a single deck. No pay-to-play listings, no anonymous reviews standing in for credentials.

Licence verified

Regulated professions, checked against the regulator’s public register and re-checked annually. The licence number is on the card.

Profile reviewed

Where there is no public regulator, a Vetta reviewer checks the submitted profile before it appears. Photo-ID, selfie and background-check products are not live yet.
