🧠 How We Calculate Rankings

Our AI-powered sentiment analysis goes beyond simple star ratings

📊

Sentiment Score (0-100)

Our AI reads every review and extracts emotional tone, specific praise, and criticism. Positive mentions of food quality, service, and atmosphere increase the score. Complaints lower it. The result: a single number that captures how people actually feel.

Review Volume & Ratings

We pull ratings from Google and Yelp, weighing recent reviews more heavily. A restaurant with 500+ reviews and 4.5 stars ranks higher than one with 10 reviews and 5 stars. Volume = confidence in the score.

💬

What Locals Actually Say

We extract the most-mentioned dishes, standout qualities, and common themes from reviews. "Amazing pad thai" mentioned 47 times? That's a signal. This becomes the "What Locals Say" you see on each listing.

🏷️

Vibe & Experience Tags

Our AI identifies patterns like "great for dates," "kid-friendly," or "perfect for groups." These become searchable vibes so you can filter by the experience you want, not just the food type.
