Reviews that actually arrive
A steady request, sent the same way to everyone who visited, with the Google link and nothing extra.
Google profile, reviews, and AI answers
Be the answer when your town asks.
When a neighbor looks for a table or a plumber, Frontage helps the shop be named. More reviews, replies in the owner’s voice, local keywords you approve, and a record of whether Google and the assistants mention you.

Where a neighbor looks
People in town search these platforms when they need a table, a plumber, or a salon. Select a mark to read how Frontage helps you show up there. Frontage works with these products. It does not speak for them.

Replies that sound like the counter
Drafts use the shop’s signoff and the dish or the job the customer mentioned. You edit before anything public.
A profile that names the town
Category, description, services, and posts are suggested, then applied only after you approve them. Roll a change back if it was wrong.
The block, in one table
Rating, review count, and how fast new reviews arrive, next to the competitors people already compare you with.
How it works
You describe the shop. Frontage prepares the work. You decide what goes out.
01
Point it at the shop
Add the town, the category, and the Google listing. Until Google approves API access, the Grayslake sample runs on demo data.
02
Ask every customer the same way
One SMS or email, one review link, no discount and no star gate. The copy is checked before anyone is contacted.
03
Approve the words, or let the easy ones go
Replies stay in the owner’s voice. 4 and 5 star notes can publish on their own. Anything harsher waits.
04
See if the assistants name you
The same local question is asked of ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity several times. You get a share of voice, not a single lucky answer.
AI visibility
A single chat answer is not a ranking.
Ask “best restaurant in Grayslake” three times and you can get three lists. Frontage repeats the question on ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity, then shows how often the shop is named against the competitors on the block.
Sample prompt

Placeholder quotes
What owners say — these are samples, not reviews.
★★★★★
“We stopped guessing which Friday guests would leave a review. The same text goes out, and the 5-star notes no longer sit unanswered.”
★★★★★
“I can see whether the assistants mention us for ‘best plumber in town’ without refreshing three chats by hand.”
★★★★★
“The agency view is the part I open first. Two storefronts, one desk, and I still approve anything under four stars.”
Questions
What is Frontage?
Software for a local shop or the agency that looks after it. It works the Google Business Profile: review requests, reply drafts, keyword changes, a competitor scoreboard, and a check on whether AI assistants recommend the business.
Does it post to Google in this demo?
No. Demo mode stores replies and profile edits in Frontage and labels them. Nothing is sent to Google, and review requests are not texted or emailed, until those providers are connected.
Will I be charged?
No. The $49, $99, and $199 prices are per location per month. Without Stripe keys, choosing a plan only records a demo subscription.
Can an agency use it for more than one shop?
Yes. An agency account switches between client locations. An owner account sees only their own.
Do I have to know SEO?
No. Frontage suggests the category, description, services, and a post that name the town. You approve each one before it is applied.
How does the AI check work?
You save a question a neighbor would ask. Frontage runs it three times on each engine, because the answers move. Missing API keys use labeled demo samples.
Open the Grayslake desk and click the work.
The sample has reviews waiting, a competitor table, keywords to apply, and an AI check you can run again.
