About caio.ltd
caio.ltd is a free classifieds marketplace for India. Eight sections, 136 categories and 115 cities — for sale, housing, jobs, services, community, gigs, resumes and farmers-corner. Posting is free, there is no commission on anything you sell, and you do not need to give a stranger your phone number to find out whether they are serious.
Our Mission
To make local buying and selling simple and safe enough that people do it without thinking twice. Whether you are selling a sofa, letting a flat, hiring a fitter, offering a service or moving a crop, the site should get out of the way and let the two of you talk.
Your phone number is not on your listing
This is the decision the rest of the site is built around, so it is worth stating plainly. A seller’s phone number is never shown on a listing page and never handed out on request. Buyers and sellers talk through messages first, and contact details are exchanged only when both sides have marked the deal as confirmed — and either side can withdraw that and stop sharing. Most classifieds sites publish a number and let you deal with what follows; this one does not.
Your photos leave their location behind
Phone cameras write GPS coordinates into a photograph. Uploading a picture of a bike parked outside your home can therefore publish your home. Every image is re-encoded in your own browser before it is uploaded, and the EXIF block — including the GPS coordinates — is discarded in the process. The original never leaves your device. How it works shows the pipeline step by step.
Farmer's Corner
One of the twelve sections is for farm produce, equipment, land and labour — sold directly, without the layer of intermediaries that usually sits between a grower and a buyer. It is the section the general-purpose marketplaces do not have, and it is here because the market it serves is real.
