Review-to-Recommendation Calculator
AI engines like ChatGPT and Perplexity use a rough threshold before they'll cite a local business — around 4.3★ average and 50+ total reviews. This calculator tells you how many more 5-star reviews your business needs to cross both lines.
e.g. 4.2 (stars). Check Google Business Profile.
Total count across all review surfaces (Google is the main one).
The threshold is necessary but not sufficient.
Hitting 4.3★ + 50+ reviews gets you eligible. The citation decision also depends on whether the AI engine can parse your site — structured data, crawlability, entity clarity. Run the AI Visibility Checker to see where you stand on those axes.
