What StarReply Does

Two things. Both on autopilot.

Most businesses lose customers to unanswered reviews and never ask happy customers to leave one. StarReply fixes both problems without adding anything to your day.

Every review, answered automatically

When a new review arrives on Google, StarReply drafts a professional, personalised response and emails it straight to you. Review it, edit it if you want, and post it. The whole thing takes under a minute — and the draft is waiting in your inbox the moment the review lands.

Responses that sound like you wrote them, not a template
Negative reviews handled with care, not defensiveness
Nothing posts until you approve it

Turn happy customers into reviewers

Add a customer to StarReply and it sends them an SMS or email asking them to leave a review on Google. One tap for them. Every review request tracked for you. The businesses with the most reviews are not the most popular ones — they are the ones who ask.

Send review requests by SMS or email in seconds
Short-link tracking so you know who clicked
Import your existing customer list by CSV
We had over 60 Google reviews sitting unanswered at Sprezzatura. Now every one gets a reply the same day. The responses sound exactly how I would speak to a customer. I have had to edit maybe three of them.

The Problem Every Business Has

Reviews are the first thing a new customer reads. Most businesses treat them as the last priority.

97% of consumers read reviews before visiting a local business. The ones who leave a review — good or bad — are looking for a response. An unanswered 1-star sits there for months and tells every future customer you either didn’t notice or didn’t care.

Business owners know they should respond. They don’t have the time, the headspace, or the words — especially under pressure from a difficult review. StarReply removes all three obstacles at once.

  • Not responding at all63% of consumers say they are less likely to visit a business that ignores its reviews, even positive ones.
  • Copy-pasting the same reply to everything"Thanks for your feedback!" on every review signals you didn't read them. Customers notice. And so does Google.
  • Going defensive on a negative reviewDefending yourself publicly compounds the original problem. StarReply writes measured, empathetic responses that de-escalate instead.
The Real Cost of Not Responding
1 in 3

Customers who say a business’s response to a bad review changed their opinion and made them willing to give it a chance.

Businesses that respond to reviews are 1.7x more likely to be chosen over competitors who don't.
Google's local ranking algorithm explicitly factors in review response rate. Responding to every review improves your visibility in local search.
The average business owner spends 3+ hours per week on review management. StarReply cuts that to under 5 minutes.

From the Founder

Why I built Star Reply

I kept seeing small businesses — good ones — get hurt by reviews they never responded to. Not because they didn’t care. They just didn’t have the time or the words, especially when the review was unfair or difficult to answer calmly. The product that should exist — one that watches your reviews and handles the response the moment one arrives — didn’t exist at a price a normal business could afford.

StarReply launched in 2026. I’m looking for the first 25 businesses in Ireland and the UK to prove this works in the real world. If you sign up now, you get free access for as long as you use it, direct input into what gets built next, and a product that is live and working today.

Direct access to me

Tell me what’s missing. Founding businesses shape the product. I read every message personally.

Free for life

The first 25 businesses get StarReply free forever in exchange for a short honest testimonial. No credit card, no time limit.

Everything already works

This is not a waitlist. The product is live and you can be responding to reviews within 5 minutes of signing up.

Common Questions

You’ve probably thought of one of these.

Including the one about whether it really works for your type of business.

This is the question most people have, and it's the right one to ask. StarReply generates responses that read like a real person wrote them. Not a template, not a chatbot. The AI reads the specific details of each review and responds to exactly what the customer said. You can also edit every response before posting, so if a word isn't right for you, you change it. Most users post with minimal edits. The ones who edit say they're adjusting a phrase, not rewriting the whole thing.
Any business that has a Google Business Profile and gets customer reviews. Cafes, restaurants, salons, trades, retail shops, clinics, gyms, hotels — if customers can leave you a Google review, StarReply is for you. It doesn't matter what industry you're in. The only requirement is a Google Business Profile.
Setup takes under 5 minutes and needs no technical knowledge. Add your business, connect your Google profile, and StarReply starts monitoring your reviews immediately. When a new review arrives, a draft response lands in your inbox. If you can read an email and click approve, you're ready to go. No software to install, no developer needed.
Always. StarReply generates a suggested response. Use it word for word, adjust the tone, or add a personal touch before posting. You are in full control of everything before anything goes live. The generated response is a starting point, not a locked message.
Especially negative reviews. That's where most business owners struggle most. The instinct when you get a 1-star is to defend yourself, which often makes things worse. StarReply generates responses to negative reviews that are empathetic, measured, and professional, inviting the reviewer to get in touch directly without escalating publicly.
Yes. Manage multiple Google Business Profiles from a single StarReply account. Each location has its own review feed and response history. Everything is managed from one dashboard.
The first 25 businesses to sign up get StarReply free forever. No credit card, no time limit. In exchange, we ask for one short honest testimonial once you have used it. Your account stays free for life regardless. After the first 25 spots are taken, new signups use the free tier (10 responses and 3 direct posts per month) or upgrade to Pro at £19 per month. Founding members are never charged, ever.
Cancel any time. No questions, no penalty, no cancellation call. You cancel directly from your account settings in under 60 seconds. No annual lock-ins, no exit fees. If StarReply isn't the right fit, you should be free to leave without friction.

Every unanswered review is a customer you didn’t win back.
