The Problem

Diners decide in seconds. If your Google Maps listing has outdated hours, no menu, unresponded reviews, or weak photos, they are walking into the restaurant next door.

Outdated hours costing covers

Wrong opening hours mean customers turn up when you are closed and leave a 1-star review. Ampli5 Pulse keeps your hours accurate including holiday hours.

No menu visibility on Maps

Google can show your menu directly in search results. Most restaurants have not set this up. Ampli5 Pulse adds and optimises your menu for maximum food search visibility.

Negative reviews without response

A bad review with no reply is a missed table every time someone reads it. AI responses go live in 5 seconds, turning every review into a trust signal.

Peak hours not optimised

Lunch and dinner searches peak at specific times. Ampli5 Pulse posts at the exact times your target diners are searching.
