Economic impact of SXSW alone — one of several festival surges (SXSW, ACL, F1) that flood restaurants with first-time, review-leaving tourists.

SXSW ended. You still owe 80 reviews a reply.
Austin diners treat Google like a menu — they read every response before picking where to eat. The East 6th taco spot replied to every SXSW visitor within the hour. The Rainey Street place didn’t. Guess which one is packed next festival.

who gets local restaurants
I built this because I watched restaurant owners ignore great reviews — not because they don’t care, but because running a restaurant is a full-time job. 89% of consumers are more likely to visit a business that responds to all reviews (BrightLocal), and a single unanswered negative review can cost you ~30 potential customers (Spokk). Big reputation agencies charge $500/month for what this does for $29. I’ve built products for 50+ clients over the last 5 years. If you have questions, you’re talking to me directly.
I’m based in Dubai but built Platero for markets like Austin — where festival weekends, food-truck competition, and a 4.3 Google rating decide whether the line stretches down South Congress.
