Reputation & Reviews
Public review signals. The Google rating is adjusted with a Bayesian prior (rating 4.0, weight 25) so a 5.0 from a handful of reviews does not outrank a 4.8 from hundreds.
| ◐ | Google rating (Bayesian-adjusted) as of 2026-09-01 [sm] | 1/6 |
| ◐ | Google review volume [sm] | 1/3 |

[tari-jelgava-deepen] | 0/2 |
