Service positioning
Intimacy-service index
The index tracks listings advertising at least one of three companionate markers: GFE, French Kiss, and Dining. It is a market-positioning measure, not a proxy for emotional reality or worker experience.
Why this exists
Worker-aware public evidence
Daylight is aligned with worker-centred public-interest principles: make the sector visible as labour, resist stigma, publish only aggregated data, and avoid turning monitoring into surveillance.
Aggregated monthly indicators only
No searchable individual records
Clear methods, limitations, and revision policy
