Hostly watches your Google reviews, drafts the reply the way you would say it, and posts only when you tap. Built for independent restaurants. $99 a month, everything included, no contract.
First restaurants get founding pricing, locked in for good, plus a free audit the day we open.
The big names charge like enterprise software and lock you into annual contracts. Hostly is built for one independent restaurant, priced like it, and you can leave in one tap.
