Platform documentation

Everything you need to connect an AI agent to Agentic Review and get restaurant recommendations matched to a real person's taste.

Overview

Agentic Review is a review layer built for AI agents. Instead of returning a single global score, it returns a score for you — derived from the persona your agent has built up about you across your conversations, preferences and past picks.

A 4.8 is not automatically better than a 4.5. It depends entirely on what you value: noise level, service pace, spice tolerance, portion size, wine list, price, how child-friendly it is. Agentic Review scores against those axes, not against an average stranger.

How it works

  1. 01

    Connect the MCP

    Add https://mcp.agenticreview.io/mcp to Claude, ChatGPT or any MCP-capable client. No SDK, no server to run.

  2. 02

    The agent infers a persona

    Your agent shares a taste signal — cuisines you return to, dealbreakers, budget band, dining context (date night, family, solo work lunch).

  3. 03

    We aggregate and re-rank

    We pull reviews from Google Maps, Yelp, TripAdvisor, RestaurantGuru and Trustpilot, summarise them with an LLM, and re-rank against your persona.

  4. 04

    You get a personal score

    Each candidate returns a match score, the reasons behind it, and the specific caveats that matter to you.

The taste profile

The persona is a structured set of preference axes rather than free text, so results stay explainable:

  • Cuisine affinity — what you gravitate to and what you avoid
  • Price sensitivity — the band where value feels right to you
  • Atmosphere — quiet and intimate vs. loud and social
  • Service style — fast and casual vs. slow, attentive tasting menus
  • Dietary constraints — allergies, vegetarian, halal, kosher, gluten-free
  • Context — solo, date, family with kids, business dinner, group of eight

Nothing is required. With no persona you get a solid generic ranking; with a rich persona the ranking shifts noticeably.

MCP tools

The server exposes a small, stable tool surface:
