Restaurant data
ghostbuster.dev is built on a clean, human-reviewed dataset that maps virtual, delivery-only restaurant brands to the chain kitchens that actually operate them. It is the same data that powers the unmask on this site, and you can license it.
What you get
- Brand to parent-operator mappings for national virtual brands (US and UK).
- Cuisine, active/retired status, and active years for each brand.
- Common aliases and misspellings, so matching is forgiving.
- A source link and a last-verified date on every record.
- Weekly refresh from public sources, with a human review gate before anything ships.
