Pillar · Reputation
The average is what gets reported. The spread is what gets experienced.
Mapboard collects what people say about each Location, groups the themes that repeat, and shows the Location next to competitors in its radius.
“Got there at 9 and it was closed, even though Maps says it opens at 8. Second time this has happened to me at this Location.”
Orbit suggests a reply
We're sorry this happened. The published hours have been corrected and we're reviewing the opening routine at that Location. Thank you for flagging it both times.
01 · The problem
A network averaging 4.0 has Locations sitting at 2.5
The average is the number that goes into the report. The customer walks into one Location, and that Location is the brand to them.
Reading the network only in aggregate hides the Location that is pulling away from the rest. Mapboard keeps reviews on the Location they belong to.
02 · How it works
From what they say to what you do
Five steps. The last one leaves the recurring theme with the Location's owner.
- 01
It gets collected
Google Business Profile reviews stay on the Location they belong to.
Rating, text, and history live with that Location's listing. The inbox shows the network and can be filtered by group.
- 02
It gets understood
Semantic analysis groups themes and surfaces what repeats across the network.
That is where a theme shows up again: the checkout, at one Location, on Saturdays. Orbit summarizes the pattern. The team reads it before treating it as fact.
- 03
It gets answered
Orbit drafts a reply and your team reviews it before it publishes. The text that goes out is the text a person approved.
The suggestion uses the review and the Location. Publishing stays a decision for the team.
- 04
It gets compared

- 05
It gets handled

03 · The difference
What the average leaves out.
The unit is the Location
Reviews are read on the Location and across the network. A theme that repeats shows up where it happens, and the average stops being the only reading.
Competitors in the radius, on Google data
The Location is compared with nearby businesses: ratings and review signals. The source is Google.
A person reviews the suggestion
Orbit drafts, summarizes, and surfaces recurring complaints. The team approves the reply before it is published.
