Hey there!
First off thank you. With your support, Brila became Product of the Day, Product of the Week, and #1 Product of the Month here on Product Hunt.
Since then, people from all over the world have generated over 5,000 sites with Brila and the most requested feature by far was more review sources.
So here it is: you can now use your Yelp reviews, not just Google Maps.
Quick recap: Brila writes website copy only from what your real customers said no invented claims, no generic filler. Yelp matters if you run a restaurant, salon, or local service where customers write there more than on Google. Those reviews are often longer and more specific which means better raw material: what people actually praise, in their own words, becomes your headlines and copy.
Btw, from what we've seen so far, photos on Yelp tend to be better than on Google Maps both in quality and quantity. So sites built from Yelp often just look better, too.
To try it, paste your business link on Yelp as a source when creating a website.
Really like that this starts with what customers already say, not what owners think sounds good
Brila
thanks! that’s exactly the point. Reviews already contain the specifics people care about, so we start there instead of guessing “good-sounding” copy. If you try it on a business, I’d love to hear which line felt most true.
Brila
@ek_zi Exactly, Kate. Performing user research for our products for 15 years, we never had one where users didn't surprise us.
Sounds very nice! Could it be embedded into my site?
Brila
@ipolotsky Not easily. It’s designed to be a standalone website.
Maybe you could grab the page we generate with Claude Code and task it with embedding the content into your website, and see where it goes.
Brila
@nikita_kuchta You can do it! Click edit content in the left menu.
Cool app, I tried it out and does exactly what it promises.

There are options to
Modify the content of the generated site
Options to customize logo

Use your own domain (it gives you a sitename[.]brilla[.]ai link by default. If interested I tested this on a hotel from google maps and received this page
I would definitely recommend. Congratulations on launch🙌
One question
The only question I couldn't answer is whether it automatically updates as the reviews change, or whether there is a kind of refresh button for the user.
Great app though

How does the dedupe work here?
Brila
@nab0y Good question!
Site name is used as the subdomain for published sites, so it must be unique. When a new site is created with a name that's already taken, we append a numeric suffix:
- Convert the business name to a URL-safe slug (e.g. my-bakery)
- If that slug is available — use it as-is
- If it's already taken — append -1 (my-bakery-1)
- If that's taken too — append -2 (my-bakery-2), and so on
Brila
@nab0y dedupe?
congrats on the launch! Do you plan to add reviews/info from other platforms like Foursquare or similar?
Brila
@alena_korpula hmm, maybe
@paul_malaj , should we?
Brila
@alena_korpula Adding more data sources is definitely a priority. Speaking of Foursquare, is it still alive? Which platforms are trending now? TripAdvisor, Booking.com/Airbnb, Yelp, Trustpilot?

Real customer wording is carrying the page, and that is exactly why it works
Brila
@nut_ti exactly!! that's the whole point
Brila
@nut_ti You've nailed it. Speaking to the customers in their own language is the key.
