Every StayFi checkout, reservation completion, or event ending triggers an automatic review request via email, SMS, or WhatsApp. Configure your trigger once and Reviewflowz handles the rest, sending personalized requests to guests asking them to share their experience on Google, TripAdvisor, Yelp, or OpenTable. No manual work required from your team. The system detects the checkout event in StayFi and immediately sends the request to that specific guest. With our average conversion rate of 7.5% across all customers, you'll see consistent review growth without adding tasks to your front desk or housekeeping staff.
Identify your best guests from 5-star reviews
When guests leave 5-star reviews on Google or TripAdvisor, that feedback automatically appears in StayFi attached to their reservation record. Your front desk team instantly knows which guests are your biggest advocates without scanning multiple review sites. Use this data to ask happy guests for video testimonials, referrals to friends and family, or social media shares. Since these guests already publicly praised your property, they're far more likely to help with additional marketing efforts. This guest advocacy data becomes a powerful tool for building relationships with your most satisfied customers and turning them into repeat visitors.
Staff review attribution without guest name-drops
Reviews automatically connect to the specific staff member who handled each reservation without guests mentioning names. Since Reviewflowz integrates with StayFi's reservation data, it knows which housekeeper, front desk agent, or manager served each guest. When reviews arrive, they're immediately attributed to the right team member. This eliminates the awkward practice of asking guests to mention staff by name, which often leads to misspellings or Google flagging reviews as potentially fake. Your reviews read naturally while you still get detailed performance breakdowns showing which team members consistently earn positive feedback from guests.

Get up and running in minutes • Upgrade when you're ready
See your actual review performance with conversion rates calculated from StayFi booking data. A hotel with 100 reviews from 2,000 bookings has a 5% conversion rate, while another with 50 reviews from 400 bookings achieves 12.5%. The second property is winning despite fewer total reviews. Reviewflowz automatically pulls your booking volume from StayFi to calculate this critical metric, showing exactly how many guests are leaving reviews compared to your total guest count. Track performance by individual staff members, room types, or date ranges to identify what drives guests to share their experiences online.
AI review replies across all hospitality platforms
AI generates professional replies to every review across Google, TripAdvisor, Yelp, OpenTable, and 200+ other platforms in your brand voice. Consistent review responses improve your search rankings and show future guests that you care about feedback, but manually replying to every review across multiple platforms takes hours each week. The AI learns your hospitality business's tone and generates appropriate responses to both positive and negative reviews. You can approve each reply before it posts or set them to publish automatically. This ensures every guest receives acknowledgment of their feedback while freeing your management team to focus on operations.
