By searching for keywords including ‘air conditioner’ in the search bar at the top of Karrot’s home screen, users can easily view information about nearby local businesses. Users can also check benefits such as discounts or events offered by each business, and by entering simple information through the ‘Request a Quote’ button at the bottom of the business profile, they can receive service estimates. To enhance user convenience, Karrot plans to separately provide an ‘Air Conditioner Cleaning’ category within the ‘Near Me’ tab until June, which will gather and display information about local air conditioner service providers.



A Karrot representative stated, “On Karrot, it is easy to find information about businesses, technicians, and experts in your neighborhood that are difficult to find on portals,” adding, “Not only air conditioner installation but also lifestyle services such as moving, repair, and tutoring are actively connecting local experts and residents.”
