Where does the data in this report come from?

Real buyer quote requests placed through Okhantu, and the providers registered against those categories. It is not a survey, an estimate, or a third-party dataset. That also means it is a sample of one marketplace rather than a census of your whole industry, and the report says so on the page.

Does it tell me what my competitors charge?

No, and we will not pretend otherwise. We hold what buyers said they expected to spend, which is a different number from what providers actually charge. The report shows the buyer budget mix and states plainly that it is not competitor pricing.

Is it specific to my town?

No, it is provincial. Providers record the provinces they cover rather than individual towns, so a town-level competitor count would be a guess. We would rather give you a number that is true at province level than one that looks precise and is not.

What if you have no data for my trade in my province?

Then you are not charged. We check coverage for your exact category and province before payment, and if there is not enough demand data to write an honest report the checkout stops and tells you rather than selling you an empty document.

Competitor & Gap Report

Most suppliers guess at how busy their market is. This report answers it with numbers: how many buyers asked for your kind of work in your province, what they budgeted, how many registered providers compete for it, and which provinces show demand nobody is serving. It is built from real quote requests placed on Okhantu and the providers registered against them, not from a survey or an estimate. We check that we have enough data for your trade and province BEFORE you pay, so you are never sold an empty report.
