Connect Buildertrend to automatically request reviews when jobs complete, inspections pass, or invoices are paid. Monitor Google, Angi, and 200+ platforms.
Automated review requests from Buildertrend job completion
When your Buildertrend job status changes to completed, passes final inspection, or receives invoice payment, Reviewflowz instantly sends a review request to that homeowner via email, SMS, or WhatsApp. Configure your trigger event once in the dashboard, choose your preferred communication method, and every completed project automatically generates a review request without any manual work. The average contractor using automated requests sees a 7.5% conversion rate compared to manual follow-ups that often get forgotten or delayed. WhatsApp delivers 98% open rates versus 20% for email, making it highly effective for busy homeowners who might miss traditional communications.
Identify your best customers for referrals and testimonials
5-star reviewers make perfect candidates for video testimonials, referrals, and case studies, but most contractors never identify who these promoters are. Reviewflowz automatically flags your happiest customers by syncing positive reviews back to their Buildertrend project records. When Mrs. Johnson leaves a glowing Google review about your kitchen renovation, that 5-star rating appears directly in her project file where your team can see it. Now your sales manager knows exactly who to contact for a testimonial video or referral program invitation. This data connection turns anonymous online reviews into actionable customer intelligence for growing your business through word-of-mouth marketing.
Track staff review performance without customer name-drops
Asking customers to mention crew leaders by name in reviews often backfires when Google flags those reviews as suspicious or homeowners misspell names. Reviewflowz solves this by connecting to Buildertrend's project assignments to automatically attribute reviews to the right team members without requiring any names in the review text. When a review comes in for a completed bathroom remodel, the system already knows Mike handled the plumbing and Sarah managed the project based on Buildertrend data. You get accurate per-staff performance tracking for bonuses and coaching while reviews read naturally to future customers. This approach reduces Google's automatic review removals while maintaining detailed staff attribution.

Calculate review conversion rate from Buildertrend job data
Raw review counts mislead contractors about their actual performance because they ignore how many jobs were completed. A contractor with 100 reviews from 2,000 completed jobs (5% conversion) is underperforming compared to one with 50 reviews from 200 jobs (25% conversion). Reviewflowz connects to Buildertrend to track your exact job completion numbers and calculate your true review conversion rate automatically. See monthly reports showing 150 completed projects, 23 reviews collected, 15.3% conversion rate instead of just celebrating total review counts. This metric reveals whether your review collection process actually works and how you compare to the industry average of 7.5% conversion across all Reviewflowz customers.
AI auto-replies to contractor reviews across all platforms
Responding to reviews improves local search rankings and shows professionalism to potential customers, but manually replying across Google, Angi, HomeAdvisor, BBB, and dozens of other platforms consumes hours weekly. Reviewflowz uses AI to generate branded responses to every review across 200+ platforms automatically. The AI learns your company's voice and creates appropriate responses for 5-star kitchen renovation reviews, 3-star electrical service feedback, and negative plumbing complaints. Set responses to auto-publish or require manual approval based on your comfort level. This ensures consistent engagement across all review platforms while freeing up time for actual project work instead of social media management.
