HOW IT WORKS
That’s the single biggest thing that determines whether AI recommends you. Three fields per week. We do the thinking.
Secure login to your Google Business Profile. Two minutes, no technical knowledge required.
We ask you plain questions about your venue and fill in the rest. Do it between services or on a Monday morning.
Free Chrome Extension helps you reply to Google and TripAdvisor reviews faster. It learns your voice.
What people are saying about you, what your competitors are up to, and what's working for other places nearby.
One bad review and you can't switch off. We know the feeling.
booteek reads your reviews before you do. We work out what's a genuine concern and what's just a difficult customer, then give you the summary. No star ratings staring at you first.
Clear head. Better sleep.
Not Sure Where You Stand?
See why the venue down the road ranks above you on Google. Your profile, your reviews, your competitors — one report, 60 seconds.
A plan for getting more replies out and improving what people actually say about you.
