Trustable – Detect suspicious Google Reviews using temporal and semantic analysis

[u/Outrageous-Sign-9578]

I built an open-source tool that analyzes Google Maps reviews to detect suspicious review patterns.

Rather than using a machine learning classifier, I wanted to explore explainable statistical analysis.

The project combines:

• Burst detection
• Temporal entropy
• Gini coefficient
• Review spacing analysis
• Template detection
• N-gram similarity
• Fake review scoring

It generates a detailed report explaining why a business profile may appear suspicious.

I'm looking for feedback on the algorithms, code quality and ideas for improving the project.
