## ToolGPA grades

**GPA: 2.4 out of 4**, graded Oct 18, 2026. Grade.us gets local businesses more reviews on Google, Facebook and industry sites, and it's built mainly for agencies that resell it under their own brand. Small Business is $99 a month billed yearly for one location. Fine if you're an agency; a single shop has simpler, cheaper choices, and Grade.us gives no refunds.

- **Value for money: C.** Small Business is $99 a month billed yearly ($124 monthly) for one location. Set against its listed rivals, the local review tools, that's the middle. More locations get cheaper, from $60 each down to $25 at 101+, which suits agencies and chains more than one shop.
- **Free plan and trial: C.** No free plan, but a 14-day trial for 3 seats with no credit card. Texting, the API and the white-label dashboard aren't in it unless sales turns them on, and there are no refunds afterwards.
- **Features: B.** The whole local review job: review landing pages for hundreds of sites, email, text and MMS requests with follow-ups, monitoring with alerts, replies to Google and Facebook, review streams with schema, social sharing and branded reports. Agencies get reseller tools on top.
- **Ease of use: C.** No store rating on record. There's a fair bit to set up: campaigns, landing pages, integrations and reports, and the agency side adds client accounts and branding. Built for marketers more than shop owners.
- **Platforms and integrations: B.** Web, with Google Business Profile, Facebook, Salesforce, HubSpot, QuickBooks Online, Mailchimp, Constant Contact and Zapier, plus an API. No phone or desktop app is listed.

## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** The plain part of Grade.us you could make: review collection and reports. What surrounds it you could not. The 3 things listed below take a company, not a weekend. It costs $1,188 a year.

- You could make: Review collection and reports: an app builder makes these well.
- You could not: It plugs into other products, Google Business Profile, Facebook and Salesforce among them, and has an API.
- You could not: Hooks into the device itself: widgets.
- You could not: The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.

A judgement by ToolGPA from this listing, by rules that are the same for every tool. Nothing was built to test it.
