See how you rank against nearby competitors

Search for your restaurant or venue and get a competitor review check against nearby businesses in your category, based on Google rating and review count.

Pick your business from the dropdown to see the ranking.

A competitor review check compares your Google rating and review count against other restaurants and venues near you. Search for your business, and it pulls the nearby listings in the same category from Google Maps and ranks them so you can see exactly where you stand.

Why review count matters for ranking

Google Maps ranking factors include your average rating, how recent your reviews are, and how many you have relative to nearby businesses. A venue with a strong rating but far fewer reviews than its neighbors often loses visibility to competitors who simply have more recent reviews.

Narrow or broad comparison

The tool detects your Google category and offers two views:

Switching between the two shows whether you are being compared to close rivals or to the whole local market.

What to do with the result

If your rating is close to your competitors' but your review count trails behind, a steady flow of new reviews is usually the fastest way to close the gap. If a handful of 1-star reviews are pulling your rating down, checking whether any of them break Google's review policies can move the number faster than collecting new reviews.

Frequently asked questions

How does the competitor ranking work?
It uses Google Maps data to find nearby businesses in your category, then ranks them by average rating and review count so you can see where your business stands.
What data will I see?
Each nearby competitor's name, Google rating, review count, and distance from your business, plus your own position in the ranking.
Can I narrow the category?
Yes. The tool detects your Google category, for example Italian restaurant, and lets you switch between that narrow match and a broader group such as all restaurants nearby.
How can I improve my ranking?
Your average Google rating and your review count are the two biggest factors. Replying to reviews and asking happy guests for one are the fastest ways to move both.
