Auto-Generated Replies

Manage and respond to a high volume of reviews more efficiently with our Auto-Generated Replies tool.

Requirements ✅

  • Available on the Plus plan

  • Works on: product reviews/company reviews
    ​

You stay in control

Replies are never posted automatically. When you click Auto Generate Reply, we create a draft for you to review. You can [edit it and] post it, or discard it. Nothing is published until you click Post Public Reply.


How it works

The AI learns from replies you've already posted, so its drafts sound like your brand. It looks at:

  • your tone of voice

  • how you use emojis

  • details you often include, such as your support email address or phone number

If you haven't posted any replies yet, the AI will use a neutral, professional tone.


Where to find it

  1. In your REVIEWS.io dashboard, go to the Timeline.

  2. Click the review you'd like to reply to.

  3. At the bottom of the review, next to Post Public Reply, click Auto Generate Reply.

  4. Read the draft. [Make any edits you need.]

  5. Click Post Public Reply to publish it, or close the review to discard the draft.


Best practice

  • Check contact details. The AI may include an email address or phone number from your earlier replies. Make sure they're still correct.

  • Take extra care with negative reviews. A thoughtful, personal reply matters most here. See Managing Negative Reviews.

  • Watch for specifics. If a review mentions an order, product or person, check the draft handles it accurately and doesn't promise anything you can't deliver.
