Birdeye, the leading marketing platform for multi-location brands announces the launch of its solution for restaurants and franchise groups, equipping them with industry-specific AI capabilities to get found online, build a stellar reputation, streamline social media, and get insights to improve guest experiences and drive sales.

Powered by proprietary Large Language Models (LLMs) designed specifically for the restaurant industry, Birdeye’s AI platform transforms complex data into actionable insights, helping restaurants thrive in a dynamic and competitive market.

Centralizing Guest Feedback for Actionable Insights

Birdeye’s Insights AI simplifies the process of gathering and analyzing guest feedback from reviews, surveys, and direct input. Using restaurant-specific sentiment analysis, it enables businesses to uncover trends, address issues, and enhance operations across locations.

“We were getting mixed feedback about a specific menu item and were preparing to update our menu accordingly,” said Denise D’Amico Johnson, Manager of Guest Relations at Black Bear Diner, a popular chain of family restaurants. “With Birdeye, we analyzed guest feedback in detail and discovered that the item was actually a favorite. This insight prevented a costly and unnecessary menu change and reinforced the value of listening to our guests at scale.”

Insights AI also ranks locations based on reputation, sentiment, and visibility, providing tailored recommendations to ensure consistently high performance and a strong brand image across all sites.
