Yes it is, the places are submitted by users of the website. Places are fetched from Google API when there are no places on Workmode. Turned this off tho, for now, because it slowed the backend

Users can check into a place whenever they are located in a cafe. You can do so with the little button in the bottom right corner. You can also submit places when you're a (free) member, without checking in.
