The challenge
Why restaurants struggle with online reviews
One bad review can empty tables
A single 1-star Yelp review can cost a restaurant up to 9% of revenue. When bad reviews sit with no reply, diners assume the worst. Without a fast way to reply and collect good reviews, one bad night can define your name.
Reviews are scattered across too many platforms
Google, Yelp, TripAdvisor, OpenTable, DoorDash, Uber Eats, Facebook — your reviews are all over. Checking each site daily isn't doable. So reviews sit unread for days or weeks.
Happy diners leave silently
A table of four has a great meal, thanks the server, and leaves. They never think to write a review. But the one guest who waited too long goes straight to Yelp. Without a nudge, you only hear from unhappy diners.
Platforms we monitor for restaurants
How it works
Everything your restaurant needs for review management
Post-meal review requests
Send review requests by SMS after each visit — fired by your POS, booking system, or a manual upload. A quick text with a direct Google link turns happy diners into public fans.
AI responses that match your vibe
Fine dining or casual taco joint — AI adapts to your brand voice. Warm and polished for upscale spots. Casual and friendly for the local place. Every reply feels like it came from you.
All platforms in one dashboard
See Google, Yelp, TripAdvisor, OpenTable, Facebook, DoorDash, and more in one view. No more logging into eight sites. You see every new review the moment it posts.
Negative review damage control
Get instant alerts for reviews under 3 stars. AI writes a reply in seconds — noting the issue, saying sorry, and inviting the diner back. Fast replies to bad reviews show you care and can win back up to 70% of upset diners.
Review highlights on your website
Put your best reviews on your site with custom widgets. Show future diners what real guests say about your food, service, and vibe — right where they decide to book.
Social proof on social media
Share 5-star reviews to Instagram and Facebook on autopilot. Turn your best diner feedback into social posts that fill tables on slow nights.
