Guest feedback for independent restaurants

Catch the bad night before it becomes a bad review.

Heard puts a 20-second feedback form on every table. Happy guests get nudged to Google. Unhappy guests reach your manager's phone in seconds — while they're still in their seats and you can still fix it.

No hardware. No POS integration. Live the same afternoon you sign up.

How it works

From QR code to a handled problem, in three steps.

Heard isn't another survey tool. It's a routing system: every rating goes exactly where it does you the most good.

Step 1 🧾

Guest scans the table card

A QR code on the receipt, table tent, or check presenter opens your branded form. Your name, your colors, your tables — it never looks like third-party software.

Step 2

One tap rates the visit

Five stars, optional comment, optional contact info. Most guests finish in under 20 seconds — which is why they actually do it.

Step 3 📲

Heard routes it instantly

4–5 stars → a friendly nudge to leave a Google review. 1–3 stars → an SMS to your manager on duty with the table number, the issue, and a chance to make it right tonight.

The moment that matters

Your manager knows before the guest reaches the parking lot.

A comped dessert and a sincere apology at the table costs you a few dollars. The same complaint on Google costs you every future diner who reads it. Heard buys you the window in between.

  • Real-time SMS alerts with table number and issue tags
  • "Mark handled" tracking so nothing falls through a shift change
  • A dashboard that shows what keeps going wrong — slow service, cold food, wait times — so you fix causes, not just nights
  • Weekly digest of ratings, trends, and Google review clicks
Pricing

Less than one comped entrée a week.

One flat price per location. Unlimited tables, unlimited responses, unlimited staff phones on the alert list. If Heard saves you a single one-star review a month, it has paid for itself many times over.

Setup is a 15-minute call: we brand your form, print-ready QR cards land in your inbox, and your first alerts arrive the same night.
