A Grade.us alternative when you are the owner
Grade.us is built for agencies: managing several clients’ reviews from one account, full white labelling down to the favicon, custom reports. Pricing is per seat, with a three seat minimum on the professional plan at 60 $ each, and ten on the agency plan at 40 $.
Those minimums say everything: the product is sold to whoever manages several businesses they do not own. If you are the owner, you are the client of their client.

A three seat minimum is a clear answer
An agency platform is built around a portfolio: several client accounts, access to delegate, reports to send to somebody else. All of that is useful, and all of it assumes you bill this work to a third party.
A shop owner has nothing to bill anyone and no portfolio. They have a Google profile and a time problem. Reply is sold for one profile, with no minimum, and cancels without notifying anybody.
If you actually are an agency
Reply has no white labelling, no client accounts, no delegated billing, and will not: that would be a different product. An agency wanting to resell review management under its own brand is right to look at Grade.us.
The five business plan exists for an owner who owns five locations, not for a provider running five for other people.
What you gain
- No minimum: one business is enough.
- A published monthly price with no commitment.
- Reply writing included, in your tone.
- Approval on Telegram rather than in a platform.
What you lose
- White labelling and reselling under your own name.
- Managing a client portfolio with delegated access.
- Custom reports carrying an agency’s branding.
- Reviews from platforms other than Google.
How to judge before you pay
You create the account yourself, connect your Google profile, and see Reply’s drafts on your real reviews for seven days.
No access is delegated to a third party: the account is yours, and your replies go out under your name on your profile.
Below four stars nothing is published without your approval, unless you explicitly change that.
Common questions
I am an agency, can Reply be useful to me?
Not as a reselling tool: there is no white labelling and no client accounts. A client can of course subscribe themselves and let you advise them.
Can I manage several businesses?
Yes, up to five profiles on the multi plan. It is designed for an owner of several locations.
Is there a minimum commitment?
No. One business, one month, and cancellation in one click.
