About us and our mission for local business
Lokvi helps local businesses get seen, chosen, and recommended on Google, without spending their evenings on it. Our customers are tradespeople, shop owners, and self-employed professionals who focus first on running their business, and who have neither the time nor the desire to manage a marketing strategy on the side.
What guides us
What we believe in
Simple first
Our customers run a business, not a marketing department. Everything should work without technical skills, in just a few minutes, then run on its own.
Close to you
We work with artisans, shop owners and small local businesses. We reply ourselves, in French, and we know the reality on the ground.
Automation serving people
AI writes, follows up and publishes for you, but it is always your voice and your reputation. You stay in control, we save you time.
A clear price
One plan, one public price, no hidden tiers or discounts negotiated over the phone. You know what you pay and what each action uses.
Your data stays yours
Your reviews, your customers and your contacts belong to you. They are neither resold nor reused elsewhere, and access to your profile is cut off when you decide.
Nothing goes out without you
Every text published in your name can be reviewed before it is sent. No one should discover on their own profile a reply they did not approve.
Metrics that matter
No dashboard filled with decorative metrics. We show collected reviews, validated stamps and visits, because those are what matter.
No commitment
We prefer to keep our customers because the tool is useful, not because a contract holds them back. The subscription can be canceled in two clicks from your account.
Built for local businesses
A neighborhood artisan does not have the same needs as a national chain. Everything is designed for one profile, a small team and an area of just a few miles.
Our story
Why we created Lokvi
Today, a customer hesitating between two businesses almost always starts in the same place: Google. They look at the rating, read a few recent reviews, take a quick look at the photos and opening hours, then decide. A lively, well-rated profile wins the customer; a neglected one loses them, often without the business owner realizing it.
The problem is that taking care of your online presence takes time that independent business owners do not have. Following up with every customer to get a review, replying to everyone, posting regularly, keeping your information up to date: on paper it is simple, but in the reality of a working day, it never gets done.
We created Lokvi to remove exactly that obstacle. The original idea has stayed the same: give small businesses the same automation tools as large brands, in something simple enough to set up once and then forget about. You connect your Google Business listing, and the rest happens on its own: follow-ups, review replies, posts, loyalty.
