Review Velocity + Sentiment Trend

Point-in-time review audits miss the most important signal: velocity. A business drifting from 4.7 to 4.5 over 90 days loses local-pack visibility roughly 60 days after the drift starts. Catching the drift early is the difference between a prompt and a campaign. This tool buckets your review history by month, runs lexical sentiment, and flags both velocity and sentiment drift.
