ChatGPT visibility for local businesses

When someone asks ChatGPT for the best
plumber in town — is
your client in the answer?

ScoredByAI measures how often ChatGPT recommends your clients in their city: the written answer and the map carousel, real confidence intervals, and reports you can put your agency’s name on.

Source gap: the rates above lag partly because the sources ChatGPT reads here (angi.com, expertise.com, threebestrated.com) don’t include this business

Your clients’ customers stopped searching. They started asking AI.

“Best dentist near me” is now a question people put to ChatGPT, and it answers with three names and a map, not ten blue links. Classic local SEO tooling can’t tell you whether your client is one of the three.

One screenshot proves nothing

ChatGPT answers change from run to run. You can look great on Monday and be invisible on Tuesday, and neither run tells you the truth.

Rank trackers don’t see ChatGPT

Your client can hold position #1 on Google and still never be named when someone asks ChatGPT for a recommendation in their city.

You can’t fix what you can’t trace

ChatGPT leans on a handful of sources per city and category. Without knowing which ones, “improve AI visibility” isn’t an action plan.

How it works

From “no idea where we stand” to a client-ready deliverable in three steps.

1

Paste a Google Maps link

You paste a client’s Google Maps link and we resolve the city, the state and the category it competes in. Then we ask ChatGPT the way a customer would, across three phrasings and with the state in the question, on the real consumer interface rather than a developer API.

2

Get a defensible number

Mention rate with a 90% confidence interval, measured separately for the written answer and the places carousel. The kind of number that survives a client asking how you know.

3

Close the source gap

We extract the sources behind the answers and rank the domains ChatGPT actually pulled from in that city. That list is the checklist you work through with your client.

Built to be defensible in front of a client

Anyone can paste a prompt into ChatGPT. We built the measurement layer underneath.

Statistical rigor, not vibes

Repeated sampling across three phrasings, confidence intervals on every number. Show clients evidence that survives questions.

Every scan is kept, so you can show progress

Every scan becomes Report 1, Report 2, Report 3, each at its own permanent link. Your client opens the old one next to the new one and watches 17% become 31%: the difference between a one-off audit and a line item they renew.

We ask about the right town

We ask ChatGPT about Springfield, Ohio, not just Springfield. In our own field test the wording without the state made the model stop and ask which Springfield in 8 of 20 runs, and none of the 85 businesses it did name were in the target city. Ask by city alone and the report can be about someone else’s market.

Source-gap analysis

Every recommendation comes from somewhere. We rank the domains the answers in that city actually cited, so the directories, publications and review sites your client should be on come from real citations, not a generic audit.

We name the listing behind each card

The map carousel is built from directory listings, and ChatGPT does not say which. We read it off the card itself and name it per business: Yelp, Google or TripAdvisor, with anything we cannot place shown as unidentified instead of guessed. So you see which profile actually feeds the answers in that market, and where the work pays off. See the Source column in the sample.

Both surfaces of ChatGPT

The written answer and the places carousel are different battles, and we measure both. Businesses are matched by map listing id, never by the spelling in the sentence, and a chain rolls into one line you can expand instead of five near-duplicates. You also see when your client was shortlisted for the carousel but not displayed.

Two links per client: one for you, one for them

Two reports from the same scan: you send one and keep the other. Both download as PDF and both keep their past editions.

What you open

The agency view: every business in the market with a 90% confidence interval on both surfaces, the directory behind each map card, the domains the answers cited, the search queries the model ran, and the thresholds behind every status. It’s how you answer the question your client asks after the good news.

What your client opens

A one-page report under your agency name and nothing of ours: their status, how often ChatGPT names them, the businesses it names instead, and how the number has moved since your last report.
