Most small businesses have the same problem: happy customers don't leave reviews, but unhappy ones do. Your Google rating ends up worse than you deserve.
ReviewSimple fixes this. After each customer visit, send a review request via email or QR code. Customers tap to rate you—takes 5 seconds.
5-star ratings go straight to Google or Yelp. Lower ratings come to you privately first, so you can address issues before they become public complaints.
Simple setup. No tech skills needed. $19.99/month with no contracts.
Built for salons, barbershops, dentists, chiropractors, auto repair shops, fitness studios, contractors, restaurants, and local service businesses.
Features:
- Automated email review requests
- QR codes for in-person collection (unlimited scans)
- Smart rating filter
- Customer management dashboard
- Works with Google and Yelp

BakeryFlow is a pre-order management platform built for home bakers, cottage food businesses, and small bakeries. It gives bakers a dedicated storefront where customers can browse menus, place orders, and pay upfront — before a single item is baked. By centralizing orders, payments, and pickup scheduling in one place, BakeryFlow eliminates the back-and-forth of Instagram DMs, spreadsheets, and manual payment collection that most home bakers rely on today.
Bakers can create product drops with quantity caps to control production, automatically generate bake lists from confirmed orders, and track every order through to pickup. The platform supports multiple payment methods including credit/debit cards via Stripe, Venmo, CashApp, Zelle, and cash. White-labeled customer notifications keep buyers informed without exposing third-party branding.
BakeryFlow is designed for bakers who want to run a professional pre-order operation without the overhead — so every bake day is sold out before it starts.
CakeSheet is home bakery software built for home bakers and cottage food businesses — the people running a bakery out of a home kitchen, not a commercial plant.
Most bakery software is a POS for a storefront, or production software for a plant. Neither answers the question a home baker actually has: what did this cake cost me, and what should I charge for it?
CakeSheet starts with your ingredients. Enter what you pay and the pack size you buy, and set your own conversions per ingredient — "1 cup of flour = 120 g". Build recipes on top and they cost themselves out: real cost per serving, from your actual prices. Add your labor as hours times your rate. Set a price per serving or per piece, and override it when a job calls for it.
Orders live in one pipeline sorted by due date, each with its customer, notes, and recipes. A dashboard shows what is due today and what is overdue.
Built by a pastry chef trained at The Pastry Academy by Amaury Guichon and a working software developer.

QuoteSooner is quoting software for small CNC job shops of roughly 5 to 50 people. An estimator drops in a customer's drawings, 3D models (STEP, IGES, STL, 3MF) and request text. QuoteSooner reads the part details and records the source page and exact excerpt for each value; anything unsupported or conflicting becomes a check, and the quote cannot be sent until every check is resolved.
Prices come from the shop's own machine and labour rates and its past prices for the same part, with setup spread across quantity breaks and one-time charges on their own lines. Castings, forgings and customer-supplied material are priced as what they are. Nothing is sent until a person approves it; the buyer can accept online with a PO number or decline.
On the Shop plan, quotes go out from the shop's own Gmail or Outlook, requests can arrive through the shop's own forwarding address, follow-ups go out automatically, and won quotes post to QuickBooks Online as estimates or invoices.
QuoteSooner does not do customer-facing instant quoting, CAM, ERP functions or export-controlled (ITAR) work. Built in Ottawa, Canada.

Keegix is a digital welcome book for short-term rental hosts.
Every host answers the same questions over and over: where's the lockbox, what's the wifi password, which bin goes out Thursday, how does this thermostat work, where do we park. Keegix puts all of it on one link you paste into your booking message. Guests open it in any phone browser — no app to download, no account to create.
Each property starts with the sections most places need: check-in steps, wifi with a copy button, parking, house rules, appliances, trash day, local picks, emergency contacts and a checkout list. Rename them, hide the ones that don't apply, reorder them, and add photos where a picture explains something faster than a paragraph.
A letter-size QR sign downloads as a PDF for the door or the fridge. The link and the QR code never change, so you can update the wifi password or the checkout list and guests see the new version without you reprinting anything. If you want the guide private, set a guest password and share it in your booking message.
Keegix deliberately does not handle bookings, payments or calendar sync. It sits beside whatever you already use rather than replacing it.
Free for one property, no card required. $9 CAD per property per month for multiple properties, custom colours and unlimited photos. There's also a $39 CAD setup service: send rough notes and photos, and the welcome book is built for you and delivered under your own account.
Who it's for
Hosts who don't live next door to the property
Cottage and cabin owners with a season rather than year-round bookings
Co-hosts and small property managers running a handful of units
Anyone whose "house manual" is currently a Word doc in a kitchen drawer
What it deliberately doesn't do
No bookings. No payments. No calendar sync. No channel management. It's one job, done properly, next to your existing setup.
