Automatically request removal of policy-violating reviews

Request removal of fake, abusive or policy-violating reviews on supported review sites and track every request from your platform through one API.

How the Review Removal API works.

Policy-Based Removal
API
White label
Check reviews against each review site's policy

Submit reviews that look fake, conflicted or abusive to the review site, matched to that site's content policy instead of a generic complaint.

Removal Tracking
API
White label
Track every removal request from submission to decision

See each removal request move from submitted to under review to accepted or rejected, so your users always know where it stands.

Status Alerts
API
White label
Get alerted the moment a removal request changes status

Push status changes into your product, inbox or ticketing workflow with webhooks, so nobody has to check review sites by hand.

Time to launch

Days to weeks: launch your review product without pulling your dev team off existing priorities.

12–18+ months: product scoping, hiring, building, and testing before you can even launch a V1.

Upfront cost

$500–$10k depending on products used, API vs. white label, and customization.

$300k–$600k+ in dev salaries, infrastructure, and diverted resources before launch.

Ongoing maintenance

SAU handles review site changes, API updates, hosting, uptime, bug fixes, and feature updates.

Every change to a review site, API, or UI requires new dev work, bug fixes, and QA from your team.

Core product focus

Keep your team focused on building core product features while SAU handles review management.

Diverts engineering resources for 12–18+ months away from your core product roadmap.

Reliability & scalability

SAU infrastructure is built to handle tens of millions of locations without performance drops.

Untested until launch. Scaling requires more infrastructure, costs, and dev time.
