What it does
You can't fix what you don't see. AI reads your last 100 reviews and lists what people love and complain about.
How it goes
- 01Export or copy your reviews
- 02Ask AI for top praise and complaints
- 03Pick one fix
Estimate: one-time 1–2 hoursNot a measured result.
Worth knowing
Never offer incentives for reviews, and don't gate reviews (Google prohibits it).
Wisconsin angle
In smaller Wisconsin towns, a handful of fresh reviews can move you up local search results quickly.
