TrueReview helps local businesses collect and manage online reviews. You send personalized SMS and email review requests (individually, in bulk by CSV, or automatically through Zapier and direct integrations with your CRM, POS, or booking tools), follow up with automated drip campaigns, and choose how customers respond with a direct link, star ratings, reactions, or surveys. A unified dashboard monitors reviews from Google, Facebook, TrueReview and other platforms. AI features include AI-generated review responses, automated replies to new Google reviews, AI auto-tagging and filtering, and sentiment and trend insights. Review Radar scans incoming Google reviews for possible policy violations and guides you to report them. Teammate mentions in reviews can be tracked and ranked, and an embeddable widget shows reviews on your site. Plans are priced by review-request volume, with a 14-day free trial that includes up to 250 free review requests. SMS requests are available in the US and Canada.
