Yes, and more than ever. For local businesses like restaurants and hotels, reviews are one of the strongest signals that AI tools like ChatGPT, Google Gemini, Perplexity, and others use when recommending businesses. Generally, when it comes to ranking, what works in SEO will also help you rank well in AI tools. This includes:

• Optimized Google Business Profile – Complete, accurate information
• High review volume and quality – Shows credibility and authority
• Local citations – Consistent business information across the web
• External links – Quality backlinks from reputable sources
• Relevant keywords – Natural integration on your website
• Engaging social content – What your customers actually want to see

re:spondelligent helps you excel at the most critical factor: review volume and quality. Our platform makes it easy to generate more reviews, respond strategically across all relevant platforms, and use advanced sentiment analysis to understand what drives your ratings, improving your visibility in both traditional search and AI recommendations.

Google continues to dominate the search industry. Traditional search engines aren’t disappearing anytime soon, but AI is transforming how people interact with them and creating new, complementary search experiences.

AI-powered tools such as ChatGPT, Perplexity, and other large language models are increasingly used for conversational queries, in-depth research, and step-by-step guidance.

Meanwhile, traditional search engines remain essential for local business searches, which are particularly relevant for restaurants and hotels. This means it’s crucial to maintain visibility not only across traditional platforms like Google, Google Maps, and TripAdvisor, but also to ensure that business information is easily accessible to AI-driven tools.

How re:spondelligent helps: Since both traditional search and AI tools heavily rely on review data to rank and recommend businesses, managing your online reputation is no longer optional. re:spondelligent ensures you’re building and maintaining a strong review presence everywhere it matters.

Google Business Profiles (Google Maps ). Most important overall for AI visibility. Used heavily by Google Gemini, ChatGPT (via Bing), Perplexity, and Apple’s new AI features. Google reviews provide structured data (rating, quantity, recency) that feeds directly into AI summaries and local search results.

TripAdvisor. Key for hospitality and restaurant businesses. Data is used by Bing AI, ChatGPT, and other travel-related AI tools.

Yelp. Highly influential in Perplexity, Apple Maps, and Siri’s AI answers.

Facebook / Meta Reviews. Carries less SEO weight but remains visible in AI-generated social summaries and Meta’s own assistant (Meta AI).

Industry-Specific Platforms like OpenTable for restaurants, and Booking.com, Expedia for hotels.

Your Own Website (First-Party Reviews). AI systems crawl and index structured review snippets (Schema.org markup). Displaying verified first-party reviews on your website improves your AI search visibility.

Restaurants and hotels should focus on building a strong presence across these key review platforms. re:spondelligent helps manage all of them, including major delivery platforms that are essential for restaurant visibility. With IWantTo.Review, businesses can easily generate first-party reviews and showcase them on their website, strengthening credibility and improving AI and search ranking performance.
