About NUM · by 5arz

A concierge is only as good as the places it sends you to.

NUM is a concierge you can text, anywhere you land. It plans in a conversation and books real local places, in 16 languages, at any hour.

Why we built NUM

The hotel desk, in your pocket.

Search a city you do not know and you get a page of places that paid to be there, reviews you cannot trust, and no way to tell a restaurant from a photo of one.

So travelers ask the hotel desk. A person who answers for the advice is worth more than a ranked list.

The whole idea

NUM is that desk. In your pocket, in your language, at three in the morning.

Built by people who prove people.

NUM is made by 5arz, the proof-of-human company. Every traveler NUM books for has been checked by 5arz as a unique, real, live person, so every rating carries the Verified guest badge.

A business claims its listing by proving control of the contact already published on it. NUM never makes up a recommendation to fill a gap, and nobody can pay to be recommended.

How it works, in three lines

You ask. NUM checks. Then it books.

See exactly how it works
01

Ask like you’d ask a friend

“Dinner tonight, somewhere walkable.” In your language, in the app or on LINE.

02

Three picks, not a list

From 2.7M+ real places. Each one checked and open right now, with the reason it fits.

03

Booked in the chat

The business does not need your language. NUM handles both sides and keeps the reference.
