Search & AI visibility

Track your visibility, from Google Maps to AI answers

Customers don't just search on Google Maps any more. SearchOps brings the places that recommend local businesses together: Google Maps, the local pack, AI Overviews, AI Mode, ChatGPT and Gemini. So you can see your visibility in one place.

Local pack and maps

Geo-grid scans from up to 441 points around each location. See your Google Maps position at every point, and whether you make the local pack's top 3 on Google's results page, street by street.

Google Maps

Ranks nearby businesses by relevance, distance and prominence, using the details on your profile.

Local Pack

The three businesses Google shows above the website results, drawn from the same Maps listings.

  • Maps position. out of the top 20, at every point on the grid
  • Local pack top 3. the three businesses shown inside Google search
  • Street-level detail. results that shift block to block

Google AI Overviews & AI Mode

Google's AI answers now sit above the local pack and the website links. Geo-grid scans check, point by point, whether they mention you.

AI Overviews

A summary at the top of Search. Google advises keeping your Business Profile up to date for it.

AI Mode

Google's conversational search, naming businesses from its own index and business data.

  • AI Overviews. whether one shows at each point, and whether it cites you
  • AI Mode. whether Google's conversational search names you, for locations in the US, UK and India

LLM Visibility

See whether ChatGPT and Gemini recommend you when customers ask for a local business, how often against your competitors, and the sources behind each answer.

ChatGPT

Recommends from place records supplied by third-party providers. In our testing they mirror your Google profile.

Gemini

Recommends from Google's own business data, the same profile you manage here.

  • Visibility rate. how often their answers name you
  • Citation tracking. the sources they pull from when they answer
  • Competitor share of voice. how often rivals get named instead of you

How it works

Set it up once, then it runs every week

Most tools hand you a ranking and stop there. SearchOps runs the whole loop: it measures every surface your customers search, ranks what to fix, turns that into work with an owner and a date, and shows your client exactly what moved.

  1. 1

    Connect

    One address in, and most of the setup does itself.

    Enter a business name and address. We match it to its Google listing, fill in its details and suggest the keywords worth tracking. Connect your Business Profile and Search Console with one click each, choose a grid and a schedule, and the tracking runs from then on.

    See it in the live demo
  2. 2

    Measure

    Every surface your customers search, in one place.

    Google Maps, the local pack, AI Overviews, AI Mode, ChatGPT, Gemini, reviews and your Business Profile, each checked on its own schedule and read in one place. One place to look instead of six subscriptions and a spreadsheet to join them up.

    See it in the live demo
  3. 3

    Prioritise

    Findings arrive ranked by what actually moves you.

    Findings from your scans, checks and profile audits land on one list, highest priority first, alongside the weekly profile routine: reply to new reviews, post an update. No more than five cards open per location, with the rest waiting under Suggested, so you work from the top down instead of guessing which of ninety findings matters.

    See it in the live demo
  4. 4

    Do the work

    The plan becomes work with an owner and a date.

    Promote anything into a task, assign it, set a due date, and track it to done. One board covering every tool, so the work stops living in someone's inbox.

    See it in the live demo
  5. 5

    Prove it

    The client sees exactly what your work moved.

    Reports start from where you began, mark the week the fixes landed, and go out on a schedule to you and your client, with your own branding on Agency and Enterprise. Evidence you can send, not a screenshot and a story.

    See it in the live demo
  6. Then it runs again next week, on its own

The shift

What customers say

From one clinic group to 140 locations in 11 countries

"Our in-house team runs a flagship clinic and five service sites, and SearchOps is the one place we see all of them. The geo-grid shows which postcodes we win and which we don't, and Search Console tells us which treatments people are actually searching for. Organic enquiries now outnumber paid more than two to one, and we're using the same setup to plan our next locations, Dubai included, before they open."

6 sites, 8,656 enquiries in the latest year

Read the case study
"Most of my work comes through Upwork, and the audit is what wins it. Before the first call I send a prospect a geo-grid of their profile against the three businesses beating them, with the gaps written up. Once they sign, each client gets a share link to their own report, so I can show the uplift month on month without building a deck."

23 locations across 9 clients, run solo

Jordan Mitchell

"We were stitching three tools and a spreadsheet together to answer one question: are we winning where the customers are? Now the Monday check is one screen per client. The ChatGPT and Gemini checks have started conversations with clients we couldn't have had a year ago, because we can show them where they're named and where a competitor is."

"We look after the Google profiles for a 64-branch eye care chain. Review replies used to take two people most of the week; now the agent drafts them in each branch's voice and we approve the batch every morning. Posts go out to every branch from one place, and the geo-grid shows us when a branch slips in its own neighbourhood before the client notices."

64 branches across Tamil Nadu and Karnataka

Karthik Subramanian
Head of Local SEO, Kovai Digital

"Our clients are car rental brands and travel operators with desks in airports and city centres from Dubai to Lisbon. Every branch competes in a different market, so it has to be tracked in its own country. We can tell a client their Heathrow desk is losing ground this week, not at the end of the quarter. One login covers the lot."

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Geo-grid tracking checks Google from a grid of points across a geographic area, then plots the results on an interactive map. Each scan runs on one engine: Google Maps (your Maps position at every point), Google Search (whether you're in the local pack's top 3, and whether an AI Overview shows and cites you) or Google AI Mode (whether it names you). Unlike a check from a single point, it shows where you show up well and where you don't, because local results change street by street.

SearchOps is built around your Google Business Profile, so you get the most from it when you have one. Geo-grid scans, the local pack, AI Overviews and AI Mode all measure how Google shows that profile, and profile management works on it directly. Service-area businesses with no shopfront qualify too: Google lets you hide your address and list the areas you serve instead. Without a profile, ChatGPT and Gemini visibility and Search Console insights still work, but the map tracking has nothing to find until the profile exists, so setting one up is the place to start.

Because they can no longer be measured reliably. Since 2025 Google has stepped up how it blocks and handles automated searches, and its own spam policies name scraping results for rank checking. Rank trackers across the industry have reported missing data and results that don't match what real customers see in the same place. Rather than report numbers we couldn't stand behind, we retired our website rank tracker. Map and local pack results are tied to a location and to the businesses near it, and remain reliable to track. For your website's own rankings, connect Google Search Console: it is Google's own data about your site, with no scraping involved.

Because we can't yet measure them as fully as ChatGPT and Gemini. On ChatGPT and Gemini we can see which businesses they recommend for a local search, who appears alongside you and the sources they cite. On Perplexity and Claude we could only tell you whether you were mentioned and which sites were cited, not how you compare with the competitors in the same answer. ChatGPT and Gemini tracking is still in beta while we refine it, and we would rather get those right before adding more engines. We plan to bring Perplexity and Claude to every plan once we can measure them properly. If you need them sooner, Enterprise customers can have them added to their contract.

No. SearchOps is hosted in the UK but works worldwide. You can run geo-grid scans, monitor reviews, and audit your Google Business Profile for any location globally. Google Maps and Google Search scans work in every country where Google Maps operates; Google AI Mode scans are available in the US, UK and India.

SearchOps puts geo-grid tracking across Google Maps, Google Search and AI Mode, ChatGPT and Gemini visibility, GBP audits and review monitoring in one platform on one monthly plan, so you are not joining up separate subscriptions to see your local search presence.

Yes, on Agency and Enterprise: your logo, brand colours and your own report sub-domain on your client reports. Every paid plan can share scan and GBP audit reports by link, and your clients need no login to view them. Custom reports can be saved as PDF or emailed on a schedule. Scan and GBP audit links always show standard SearchOps branding.

Every paid plan includes separate allowances, each sold in the unit you actually plan with. Geo-grid scans show where you appear on Google across your area, and your scan credits pay for them per point on the map: one credit a point on Google Maps, so a 21×21 scan uses 441, and two credits a point on Google Search and Google AI Mode. AI visibility is a monthly pool of checks too: one check is one prompt put to one engine, and every prompt goes to both ChatGPT and Gemini, so Pro's 3,000 checks cover about 345 prompts checked once a week, by hand or on a schedule. Every paid plan caps how many locations you can track (10 on Starter, 50 on Pro, 200 on Agency), a location can be any business, yours or not, and keywords are unlimited within that. A business that serves many towns counts as one location: each town you scan is its own scan, paid for in scan credits like any other. GBP audits and citation checks have their own monthly allowances shared across your locations (one citation check covers one branch each time you audit in Citations & Links; see the plan comparison), and agent review-reply drafts and auto-replies are included without drawing from any bucket. Reviews from a connected Google Business Profile sync automatically and cost nothing; only manual review checks on locations you haven't connected draw on a monthly allowance. Agency and Enterprise include unlimited team members; Starter and Pro are for a single user. There is no free plan: tracking, scans, AI visibility and audits start when you choose a plan.

No. Geo-grid scans, AI visibility, GBP audits and review monitoring all work without connecting. Connecting a GBP profile unlocks owner-only features that no third-party SERP tool can replicate: live Performance metrics (calls, website clicks, directions, search queries), audit ROI reports comparing before and after (Pro and above), and the ability to post review replies and Posts directly from SearchOps. You can connect optionally during onboarding or any time later from Settings.

Replies are sent to Google straight away, but Google checks every owner reply before it goes public. Most are approved within about 10 minutes, and a few can take much longer. SearchOps shows when a reply is waiting for Google's review or has been rejected, so you always know where it stands. We never auto-reply to reviews under 4 stars; those always wait for a human.

Direct from Google's Business Profile Performance API: calls, website clicks, direction requests, search and Maps impressions, plus the search queries that triggered them. These are owner-only metrics; they require an OAuth-connected profile to access. Google reports these numbers a few days behind, so every chart shows the last day Google has reported.
