Built by Business Owners, for Business Owners
ReviewCatalyst started with a simple frustration, and became something we wish we'd had years ago.
The Story
Most reputation management tools weren't designed for small businesses. They were designed for companies that could afford to figure them out.
We started ReviewCatalyst with a different belief: that a local business owner should have access to the same caliber of reputation tools as a national brand, without the enterprise price tag or the learning curve that comes with it.
We're a small, intentional team out of Halstead, Kansas. We're not trying to be everything to everyone. We're trying to be exactly what small businesses need, and nothing they don't. And we're reachable when it matters.
Our Mission
Every business that does great work deserves a reputation that shows it. ReviewCatalyst exists to close the gap between the experience your customers have and the story your reviews tell.
What We Stand For
Compliance First
We built ReviewCatalyst to be fully compliant with Google's review policies, the FTC's guidelines, and TCPA requirements. We don't believe in shortcuts that put your business at risk.
Built for Real Businesses
Our features are designed for the business owner who's also doing the bookkeeping, the scheduling, and the customer service. Simple, powerful, and out of your way.
Kansas Honest
We're a small business too. We price fairly, we're transparent about what we are and aren't, and we answer our own support email.
