Hey everyone 👋 Long-time learner here. Recently I built a small but surprisingly powerful AI system, and I wanted to share the thinking behind it with this group. Most local businesses don’t have a traffic problem. They have a trust problem. 93% of customers read reviews before buying — but only ~5–10% of happy customers ever leave one. So the review profile most businesses have is… skewed. Loud minorities. Silent majority. Instead of trying to “incentivize” reviews (which breaks trust), I built a mobile-first AI review generator that: • Captures feedback while the customer is still on-site • Helps customers turn their own words into a well-written review • Lets the customer fully edit + submit it themselves • Stays compliant with Google’s policies No fake reviews. No automation posting on behalf of users. Just friction removal. From a systems point of view, this was interesting because: • It’s serverless (Cloud Run → scales from 0 to spikes) • Uses LangChain purely as orchestration (not over-engineered) • Gemini 2.0 Flash tuned for human tone, not robotic outputs • White-labelable across niches (dentists, salons, clinics, etc.) Early results show 5–10× increases in review volume, which then compounds into: Better Maps rankings → more customers → more reviews. I recorded a full breakdown + live demo here if anyone’s interested No pitch. Just sharing the system and architecture in case it sparks ideas for: • AI agency offers • Local business automations • Productized AI services Would love feedback from builders here: If you were selling this, would you position it as a product or a service? Curious how others in this community would package it.
