More Google reviews for your golf course
To get more Google reviews, ask golfers right after a good round, with one tap to your review page. AI can send that request after a round, a league night or an outing, and draft a reply to every review for you to approve. Ask everyone, never pay for reviews, and never write them yourself.
Talk through your course with the person who builds it
A free 30-minute call. You leave knowing which part of your golf course to hand to AI first, what we would build, and roughly how long it takes.
Ask when the round is fresh
The best time is the hour after someone walks off 18, or the evening an outing wraps up. A short text with a direct link is easier than a card at the counter.
League players and outing guests are good people to ask, because many are first-time visitors with opinions.
Reply to all of them
Golfers read reviews for the same few things: greens, pace of play, staff, value. A thoughtful reply to a complaint about pace shows the next golfer how you handle it.
AI can draft each reply from the review text. You check it, then post.
Read them in batches
Golf reviews circle the same topics: pace of play, conditions, staff and the grill. Reading a month of them together tells you what to fix. AI can sort the last month’s reviews into those buckets, so the GM sees the pattern instead of one angry comment.
Picture this
Examples of what it can look like. Illustrations, not clients.
An outing ends and the planner gets a thank-you with a review link. The guests get one the next morning.
A review mentions slow play on the back nine. A draft reply thanks them, explains what the course is doing, and waits for the GM’s edit.
A five-star review calls out a starter by name. The draft thanks them and tags the staff member for the team.

Questions
Can AI write the reviews?
No. Reviews must come from real golfers in their own words. AI only drafts your replies and the request.
What about bad reviews?
You see them first. A reply is drafted, but nothing is posted without your say.
