As answered by people managing Code Effects and Firstcliq.
Firstcliq's answer:
Next.js and TypeScript, Supabase (PostgreSQL), OpenAI for writing replies, the Google Business Profile API, Stripe for billing, and Vercel for hosting.
Firstcliq's answer:
Firstcliq is fully automated: every Google review is answered 24/7, in the customer's own language, while you just watch. You pick the reply style once (written for you, your own templates, or a hybrid), and your team can see and edit every reply. Replies to 1–2★ reviews never go out on their own; they wait for your OK, with an instant alert. On top of replies, it tracks competitors, Google Maps rankings and profile health, all in one dashboard. For agencies, the whole thing is 100% white label.
Firstcliq's answer:
Because it does the work instead of just showing you a dashboard. Reviews get answered automatically, in any language, in the style you choose, and you stay in control of every reply. Reviews, competitors, Google Maps rankings, profile health, Google posts and QR review cards are all in one place, with a free plan and a 15-day free trial on paid plans. Agencies get white-label client portals on their own logo and URL, with weekly reports sent to every client automatically.
Firstcliq's answer:
Two groups. First, local businesses of any size that depend on Google reviews and Google Maps: restaurants, hotels, clinics, salons, car rentals, real estate, auto services, home services and multi-branch brands. Second, marketing and local SEO agencies that manage Google profiles for many clients and want to run review management under their own brand.
Firstcliq's answer:
Firstcliq was built in Dubai by Lenawa Solutions, an agency that manages Google Business Profiles for clients across the Middle East, Europe and Latin America. Answering reviews by hand for dozens of locations, in several languages, took hours every week, and reviews that arrived at night or on weekends were left waiting. We built Firstcliq to do that work automatically, in each customer's language, while keeping a person in control of every reply. Then we opened it to every business and agency.
