Our edge

Built by a restaurateur, not an SEO agency.

RestoRank is built by Nicolas Spielmann, who runs IMA, a restaurant-club in Val d'Isère. We know the service, the commission war, the late-night cover counts, the language of the trade. The tool runs continuously on our own venue: every feature ships through real conditions first.

A competitor can copy our features. They cannot copy a decade on the floor.

Analytics

Does AI traffic actually reach you?

Mentions are one thing. Then: how many visitors AIs actually send to your website, which crawlers come through (GPTBot, ClaudeBot…), and how many end up booking. Plugs into Google Analytics.

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know

Why RestoRank?

It's the only AI visibility tool built for restaurants. SEO tools measure Google. Generic tools track 'a brand'. We speak the trade's language: diner prompts, neighbourhood competitors, aggregator commissions, dish-level visibility.

How do you measure AI visibility?

We continuously query ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Claude and Google AI Overviews via their official APIs, with web search enabled. The questions match what real diners ask. For each response, we check whether you're cited, at what rank, against which competitors, and which website the booking lands on.

Can I customise the queries?

Yes. The library combines location × persona × intent (couple, business, family, late night, brunch…). Custom personas and themes are available on the Pro plan.

How do I add my restaurants?

Name and city, takes 30 seconds. The prompt library builds itself and the first measurement runs right after. Past 3 restaurants, you move to Pro automatically.

Which AI platforms do you track?

ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Claude and Google AI Overviews. Essential covers ChatGPT + Gemini; Pro covers all 5.

Can I track my competitors?

Yes. We automatically detect the restaurants AIs recommend in your place, and you can track your direct competitors head-to-head (share of voice, rank, perception).

What's the price and ROI?

€49/month per restaurant, less than one cover per day. More and more bookings come through AI assistants. Recovering a single table per month directly, with no aggregator commission, pays the subscription.

Who is it for?

Independent restaurants, groups, chains, and agencies managing their clients' visibility. Neighbourhood bistro or multi-site group, same tool.
