Stoke Reviews

Even with 500 Google reviews, a plumber watched the customer open the link…and swipe away.

Tech on site. Link sent. Phone open. Still gone.We make leaving a review feel like tapping yes — not writing an essay. Google-compliant.

Personalized photo + name overlay + short message + link. Goal: phone open, stars chosen, review written before the tech leaves.

Mechanism

What happens when they tap

Not “instant Google only.” They land on your white-label page, choose their own rating, and only happy paths get AI help — Google-compliant.

1

Prefill — they’re already known

The link opens your white-label review page withfirst name, last name, and email already filled. No hunting for your Google listing. No blank form cold-start.

How was your experience?

Prefilled from the job — they don’t retype who they are.

2

They choose the rating — we don’t force 5

Stars start empty. The customer picks. That keeps the flow honest and Google-compliant. No “score=5” baked into the demo.

Tap a star to rate

Customer decides. We don’t pre-select five stars.

Ratings 4–5: one AI suggestion, then paste on Google

Form appears. One AI review suggestion shows immediately. Submit auto-copies it to the clipboard. They tap Post on Google, paste, and publish — while the tech is still there.

Ratings 1–3: no AI — public review link still there

We don’t generate praise for unhappy customers. No AI suggestion. A plain“Write a public review” link stays available so they can still post — compliance and gating, not spin.

1–3 · no AI

Thanks for the feedback. We want to make this right.

No AI draft. Public Google path remains open.

Proof

Why they swipe away — and what we remove

The VOC wasn’t “we need more review requests.” It was: even when everything goes right, the phone still wins. So we attack the friction, not the reminder count.

Proposal

Text me a live demo.

Same flow your customers get: personalized SMS, prefilled page, they pick the stars, AI only when it’s a 4 or 5. If it doesn’t beat “swipe away,” you walk.

HVAC · roofing · decks · pools & spas · plumbing — home-service owners who already ask for reviews and still lose them at the swipe.
