The problem it solves

Keeping track of what customers are saying about your business, or your competitors, means checking Google Maps by hand and copying reviews one at a time. It is slow, easy to forget, and hard to keep organized over time.

Who it fits

Business owners or marketers who want to track reviews for their own business or watch competitors on Google Maps.

How it works

  1. You enter a search, such as a business name or location
  2. The system looks up matching places on Google Maps
  3. It pulls the reviews for each place, including rating and date
  4. The reviews are added to your spreadsheet automatically
What you get

Reviews you track without checking manually

Every new Google Maps review for a business you search shows up automatically in your spreadsheet.

What you get

An up-to-date spreadsheet of Google Maps reviews, ratings, and dates for the places you are tracking.

What you need

A SerpApi account and a Google Sheets account.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
