Fake reviews are everywhere on Google Maps, but spotting them by hand is guesswork. Review Forensics does the forensics for you.
How it works: paste a Google Maps link, we pull reviews for the place and run it through an ensemble of rule-based scorers. You get a 0–100 manipulation score, a plain-English verdict, and the actual flagged reviews as evidence — not a black-box "trust score".
What it catches:
- Review bursts (suspicious spikes of 5-star reviews)
- Throwaway reviewer accounts
- Near-duplicate review texts
Why it's different: every score is explainable. You see why a place was flagged, review by review.
