SUMMARY

Our Chrome Extension works directly within Google Search and Google Maps to display our color coded analysis of a businesses positive reviews In 2019 and 2020, Google Maps removed 130 million fake reviews.

We believe that consumers will get the best outcome from businesses by working with businesses that earned their reviews, from real customers who were inspired to share their experience. We currently support the analysis of business reviews on Google Maps worldwide, in every language. Features: ► Instant Transparency business ratings while doing due diligence.
