The audit
Three steps. Start by finding your business.
Find your business
Search for your business by name. We pull your real Google listing.
Choose your keywords
Pick the services you want to get found for in your area.
See how visible you are
Rankings, heat map, competitors, demand and AI visibility.
What you will discover
See how many people search for your services every month in your market, and what that demand is worth.
See where your business actually appears in traditional Google search for the keywords that bring in work.
See your position inside the Google Maps local pack, which is where most people pick who to call.
See your rankings across your entire service area, and the neighborhoods where competitors quietly beat you.
See which local businesses dominate your keywords, and compare your position against theirs side by side.
See whether ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Grok, Perplexity and Meta AI name your business when someone asks.
Put a number on it. The audit estimates the value of the searches you are not showing up for, and what your competitors are putting behind them to win those customers instead.
Why this matters
They might open Google Maps. They might ask ChatGPT who the best company in town is. Your business needs to show up in all of it, and most owners have never checked.
Rankings used to be one list. Now your visibility is spread across search results, the map, and the answers AI tools give. The audit measures all three in one pass.
Google Search
Still the front door for research and comparison.
Google Maps
Where ready to buy customers pick who gets the call.
AI assistants
ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude and others now answer the question directly.
Local rank heat map
Most rank checkers measure one point, usually your business address, and that is the spot where you look your best. Your customers are not all standing in your parking lot.
The heat map checks your position from a grid of points across your whole service area. Green is where you win. Red is where a competitor takes the call instead.
AI visibility
People are asking AI tools the same questions they used to type into Google. If the answer never names you, you never get the call, and nothing in your Google Analytics will tell you it happened.
What people are asking
