Test report

33/33 automated checks pass on n8n 2.45.6 (engine dry run, mocked external services); 13 cases incl. invalid input, duplicates and upstream failures. Not tested: a live OpenAI call (the AI step was mocked with fixed answers); live Google Sheets, SMTP and n8n Cloud; reply quality with a real model on your reviews; the Error Trigger email (needs a published workflow).

Known limits

  • Reply quality with a real model on your reviews is not yet measured (the AI step was mocked in tests).
  • It never posts: you copy approved replies to Google or other review sites yourself.

Live demo

  • No live demo yet. We'll add one when it ships.

What's AI here, and what isn't

This is an AI agent: it uses an AI model to read, sort, score or draft. It runs in your own accounts. Anything it would send outside your business waits for your approval unless you choose otherwise, and it never needs your passwords. Our AI disclosure.
