Local search has changed. Have you kept up?

Customers no longer scroll through 10 blue links. They ask AI assistants, check maps, and read reviews before they visit your website. You need to be present on all three surfaces.

AI-generated answers

ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini now recommend local businesses by name. If you're not cited, you don't exist in that channel.

Google Maps local pack

The 3-pack captures 44% of all local search clicks. Ranking #4 effectively means invisible for most queries.

Review trust signals

4.7+ stars with 100+ reviews is now table stakes. Below that threshold, AI systems and customers both deprioritise your business.

Frequently asked questions

How is this different from a standard SEO tool?

Standard SEO tools track organic blue-link rankings. AuthorityStack.ai goes further: it tracks your position in Google Maps local packs, your citation consistency across 80+ directories, your review trust signals across all major platforms, and whether AI assistants (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini) cite your business when customers ask questions. You get the full picture of modern local visibility in one place.

What is the Local Search Grid and how does it work?

The Local Search Grid overlays a configurable point grid (e.g. 5×5 = 25 locations) across your target city or service area. At every grid point we check your Google Maps ranking for your chosen query. The result is a heat map showing exactly which postcodes or neighbourhoods you rank in the top 3 and where competitors currently own the results. A 5×5 grid costs 25 credits.

How often should I run rank tracker scans?

Weekly is the sweet spot for most businesses. You can set up a scheduled scan so it runs automatically every week. You'll receive an email summary with your position delta and a PDF you can share with clients or your team.

Does the Schema Wizard generate valid schema?

Yes. The Schema Wizard produces JSON-LD schema that passes Google's Rich Results Test. It covers LocalBusiness, Service, FAQPage, and AggregateRating types. You can copy the output directly into your site's <head> or use our API to push it to your CMS.

Why do review signals affect AI citations?

AI systems like ChatGPT and Gemini read structured data from the web when forming recommendations. A high rating with many reviews, consistent across Google, Yelp, and relevant vertical directories, is a strong trust signal that increases the probability of being cited as the recommended business in a conversational query.

Can I use these tools for multiple business locations?

Yes. Each brand in AuthorityStack.ai represents one business location. Add as many brands as you need. Agencies typically add all their client locations and manage them from one dashboard with separate reporting per location. For franchises or multi-location operators, Location Groups lets you group brands and run a side-by-side comparison scan across all locations simultaneously — individual heat maps per location plus a combined ranked PDF showing Found %, Pack %, and average position.

How much do scans cost?

Citation Finder: 5 credits per scan. Rank Tracker: 10 credits per keyword per scan. Search Grid: gridSize² credits per keyword (e.g. 5×5 = 25 credits, 11×11 = 121 credits). Location Group scan: gridSize² × number of locations. Schema Wizard: free. Review Signals: 5 credits per scan. Content Gaps: 8 credits per analysis. The $29/month plan includes 2,000 credits; the $290/year plan includes 24,000 credits.
