Questions, answered

What is Verbatim for coffee chains?
Verbatim is a market intelligence platform that reads public data across 14 Saudi coffee brands — reviews, apps, ads, social and imports — and turns it into alerts, benchmarks and monthly briefings.
Which coffee brands does Verbatim cover?
Fourteen brands across seven Saudi cities, from international chains to Saudi-origin chains and specialty roasters. The full list is shared in your market briefing.
Does Verbatim need access to our systems?
No. Verbatim runs entirely on public data. You can connect your own data later, but nothing depends on it.
What is a cross-shopper?
A cross-shopper is a customer who has reviewed more than one coffee brand. Their ratings are the fairest comparison: the same person judging both cafés. Verbatim tracks more than 87,000.
How is Verbatim different from review management tools?
Review tools manage your own reviews. Verbatim reads the whole market, benchmarks every branch against competitors, and replies with context instead of templates.
Can Verbatim replace mystery shopping?
Verbatim covers every branch, every day, competitors included. Mystery shopping still suits scripted checks that only a trained visitor can make.
How often does Verbatim update?
Reviews and app ratings daily. Ads continuously. Social content and AI answers weekly. Briefings monthly. Imports as officially published.
Can we start with one product?
Yes. Every Verbatim product is available on its own.
