How a domain becomes a live business site — resolve the place, persist the business, pick a Muse, queue content.

Site Creation

A business site is born from a Google Place. The WHERE engine (includes/place-resolver.php, resolvePlaceToEcosystem()) resolves a place id or address, decides whether to reuse an existing businesses row (cross-root siblings skip the expensive details/deep-research calls), and persists it.

• saveBusinessData() backfills the flat lat/lng/primary_niche columns (from the

geometry/types JSON) so geo and niche queries include fresh sites.

• A Muse is selected (auto-generator draws a niche-filtered

Family); the content job is queued.

• Creating a BRAND-NEW site is metered per user per month (see billing);

Clouds over existing sites are unlimited.

Owners later manage via implicit verification, not a claim flow. Discovery of WHAT to create is driven by Prospector in the flywheel.
