Who is behind LNA-CI?
An identified company, a person who reviews every file, a written method. Here is who we are and how we verify professionals.
An identified company, not an anonymous website
LNA-CI is published by Okobe Tech, a company registered in France, headquartered in Saint-Denis.
Its manager, Marcelin Bedy, personally reviews every verification file. No badge is issued by an algorithm.
LNA-CI takes no commission: you contact the professional directly, and your conversations and payments happen with them.

Three checks before every badge
Every file is reviewed by a person, within 48 business hours. If a single one of the three checks fails, the professional does not get the badge.
They appear on the official list
Their name and licence number must appear on the list published by their trade's authority: the Ministry of Urban Planning (formerly the Ministry of Construction) for estate agents and developers, the Order for architects, chartered surveyors and notaries. Not on the list, no badge.
Their documents are consistent
Licence order, registration certificate, professional card: same name, same number everywhere, a card still valid, no altered document. A licence past its expiry with no renewal order is not validated.
It really is them applying
An agency's name and number are public: anyone could copy them. So we confirm the application with a contact they did not choose, such as the number published by their Order or the ministry, never only the one entered at sign-up.
The official lists we cross-check against
- Ministry of Urban Planning, Housing and Living Environment (formerly MCLU) — licensed estate agents and developers
- Order of Architects (OACI)
- Order of Chartered Surveyors (OGECI)
- Chamber of Notaries
