Mokriya works this way. We work with companies like Intel, Google, Twitter, SanDisk, Salesforce etc, with workforce spread across the globe with no set timings and very little management or bureaucracy.

Thanks for thoughtful feedback. On number 1, we went back and forth on that and now my memory is a little hazy on why we decided to stick with the way it is.

This comment makes me really happy. This is exactly what we were shooting for. We wanted to create a compelling user experience for Craigslist users and make it a joy to use craigslist. Wanted the experience to be on par with some of the best consumer Mobile apps on the market. It was a lot of hardwork in going through multiple design iterations to finally arrive at this.

1. There is some upfront fee and they get a percentage cut of the revenue we make.

2. You are right, craigslist doesn't have an API, so whether you are licensed or not, you have the same tools at your disposal. We did typical HTML scraping, but our amazing Dev team did some really smart tweaks to present the data in a beautiful way.

All development was done using native development tools on iOS and Android.

That seems to be a bug or those missing listings do not have lat/long. We will look into it and try to fix it. I wish craigslist provided API access to their data. Also there are licensing restrictions, so we do all the processing on the client and the app has no server component.

I hope you checked out the app. If you really did checkout the app and feel that it is no different than the other craigslist apps on the market, then I have nothing to add and I will take your criticism of the App.
