Why localGEO
Mentions are table stakes.
Revenue is the point.
AI visibility trackers stop at the mention. Listings suites stop at the profile. Call tracking stops at the tracked number. localGEO runs the whole chain, from the AI answer to the payment, as one system.
| From the AI answer to paid revenue | AI visibility trackers | Listings and reputation suites | Call tracking | localGEO |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Answers on ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Gemini | Yes | Partly | No | Yes |
| Google AI Overviews and AI Mode capture | Yes | Partly | No | Yes |

| An evidence grade on every link, prompt to payment | No | No | No | Yes |
● Yes ◐ Some tools, or partly — We have not found a tool in this category that does it. Based on public product information, October 2026.
“Most tools tell you how often an AI mentions you. localGEO shows you the call, the deal and the deposit that came from it, and how sure we are.”
The platform
One evidence chain.
Five jobs.
Every stage writes to the same evidence store, so a number on a CFO report traces back to the AI answer, the call and the payment behind it.
01
Measure
Ask the engines
Real prompts on ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Gemini, plus Google AI Overviews and AI Mode. Every answer, citation and misstatement is stored as evidence.
02
Capture
Catch every touch
Site sessions, phone taps, inbound calls, bookings and CRM leads, including the calls that never started with a click.
03
Attribute
Join it with rules, not guesses
Published rules join touches to leads. Machine evidence beats self-report, paid clicks stay paid, and unknown leads stay unknown at their real size.
04
Prove
Reconcile to revenue
Deals, invoices and payments matched back to the lead and the AI answer behind it, each link with an evidence tier and a confidence score.
05
Fix
Correct the source
Withdrawn prices, old phone numbers, broken schema and listing mismatches: fixed at the source from one signed Truth File, with rollback, and verified on the next run.
Zero-click attribution
The customers who never click
Someone asks an assistant in the car for a recommendation, hears your name and calls. There’s no click, no UTM and no referrer, so web analytics never sees them.
localGEO reads your phone system directly, through prebuilt API adapters, and stacks independent signals until every call has an evidence tier. When the evidence is thin, the call is labeled that way, never guessed.
- The number that rang Read from the phone system itself, not the extension your CRM happened to store.
- Caller matched to an AI-tagged lead A hashed caller ID matched to a lead whose visit came from an AI engine.
- A phone tap minutes before A tap on your site's phone number linked to the call that followed within three minutes.
- Paid calls kept separate Calls through Google Ads forwarding numbers count as paid, never as AI, so nothing is double-counted.
- What the caller said "ChatGPT told me" in a voicemail or transcript, confirmed by a person before it counts.
- An AI assistant read the page AI bot log analytics show an assistant fetching your page just before the call came in.
- Calls passed between systems A tracking number that forwards to Teams or Zoom is merged into one call, not counted twice.
- Aggregate uplift When no single call can be proven, the effect is reported as a range, never as a point.

Attribution confidence engine
Every dollar carries its evidence grade
One ladder for every touch, whether it’s a visit, a call, a booking or a payment. Each link gets a grade and a 0–100 confidence score computed from the evidence, never asserted. Your CFO can open any number and see exactly why it’s there.
- ConfirmedTwo independent machine signals agree, or the machine and the buyer agree. 90–95
- Machine signalOne machine signal: an AI referrer or click ID, a transcript naming the assistant, or a paid click with an AI assist. 80–85
- LinkedA caller matched to an AI-tagged lead, a phone tap matched to the call by time, or conflicting signals resolved by rule. 70
- IndicatedSoft evidence only: the buyer says an AI sent them. Kept as a labeled witness. 30–60
- DarkNo evidence. Reported at its real size, never spread across sources. 0
- EstimatedUplift no single record can prove. Shown as a range, never added to graded revenue. range
- The weakest link sets the gradeA payment traced to an AI answer is only as strong as the weakest step between them, and the report shows which step that is.
- Machine evidence winsWhat the buyer remembers is kept as a witness, and any disagreement is flagged, not hidden.
- Engine proven, prompt inferredWe prove which engine sent the customer. The likely prompt is always labeled as inferred.
- Never blendedGraded and estimated revenue are never added together without a label. Unknown stays unknown.
- Tamper-evidentEvery touch carries a SHA-256 evidence hash, and CRM write-back is idempotent, so reruns never double-count.
What we watch
Everything an AI reads about you
AI engines build their answers from your site, your listings, your reviews and the pages that cite you. localGEO checks all of it on every run and ranks what to fix by severity.
- AI answers ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini, Grok and Meta AI: cited or not, the page that won, and misstatements near your name. What consumers see and what the models answer are kept apart.
- AI Overviews and AI Mode Google's AI answers captured on a schedule and kept separate from the engine scores, so nothing is blended.
- Maps geo-grid Your rank across a grid around each location, split into cells you can win and cells that are a reach.
- Reviews Review counts and the review text that matters for the prompts you care about, against the local leaders.
- Listings Google, Yelp, Foursquare and the Knowledge Graph: name, address, phone, hours and duplicate profiles.
- Schema The structured data AI engines read, checked for broken references, prices and FAQ parity.
- Claims A wrong-fact watchdog for withdrawn offers, old prices and unknown phone numbers, on your site and in AI answers.
- Index Robots rules for nine AI and search bots, pages fetched as six of them, Search Console inspection and IndexNow.
- Drift Pages that changed since the last run, cache mismatches, broken links and missing security headers.
- Source gaps The third-party sites an engine cites when you're missing, and whether you're listed on them.
- Email authentication SPF, DKIM and DMARC, so your domain looks trustworthy to people and machines.
- AI bot log analytics Which AI crawlers and assistants fetch your pages, and when, straight from your server and CDN logs.

Fix at the source
Don’t just find wrong facts. Retire them.
AI engines repeat whatever the web says about you, including the price you withdrew last year. Monitoring tools report the problem. localGEO fixes it where it lives and proves it’s gone.
- 01One signed source of truthYour verified facts (names, locations, hours, phone numbers, services, prices and the claims you can make) live in one Truth File, signed with Ed25519 and published at a well-known address that engines, partners and auditors can verify.
- 02Fixes pushed, with rollbackApproved fixes are written straight to your site and Google Business Profile. Every change is logged with who approved it, the before and after, and one-click rollback.
- 03Verified, not assumedA finding closes only when a complete scan no longer sees the problem, in your listings, on your site and in the AI answers themselves.

The Value Atlas
They tell you what people ask AI. We tell you which answers pay.
Every closed deal teaches the platform what an AI answer is worth. The Value Atlas turns those outcomes into a map of AI demand across 45 local industries, so you invest where answers turn into revenue.
Built only from aggregated, de-identified outcomes. No client’s data is ever shown to another client.
- Intent Market Value What a question is worth: the revenue that typically follows when an AI answers it, by industry and market.
- Share of Answer How often you are the business an engine recommends for that question, measured across engines and locations.
- AI Visibility Value Your share of answer multiplied by what the questions are worth: AI visibility expressed in dollars, not ranks.
Integrations
Plugs into the systems
that hold the truth
Your phone system knows who called. Your CRM knows who became a customer. Your ledger knows who paid. localGEO joins them to the AI answer that started it, through prebuilt API adapters for each system, connected in days, not quarters.

- CIO Will it pass review and fit our stack? Single sign-on with your identity provider, MFA, tenant isolation, a client-readable audit log and prebuilt adapters for your phone system, CRM and ledger.
- CFO Can I defend the number? Revenue reconciled to Stripe and QuickBooks, an evidence grade on every dollar set by its weakest link, and estimates never added to graded revenue.
- Agencies How do we win and keep clients? Every client in one workspace, white-label reporting, and a pitch view that shows a prospect the calls and revenue they're losing today.
- Investors Why does it compound? Every client adds connectors and closed outcomes to one evidence model. The longer it runs, the better it knows which answers pay.

Questions buyers ask
How is localGEO different from AI visibility tools?
Visibility tools measure how often an assistant mentions you. localGEO measures that too, then follows the customer through the phone call, the CRM, the booking and the payment, and gives every link an evidence tier and a confidence score. The output is revenue you can trace, not a share-of-voice chart.
Can you tell me the exact prompt a customer typed?
No, and neither can anyone else. We can prove which engine sent a customer. The likely prompt is inferred from the page they landed on, and we always label it as inferred.
How do you attribute a call when nobody clicked?
We read the phone system itself: the number that rang, a hashed caller ID matched to an AI-tagged lead, and a phone tap on your site just before the call. Each signal moves the call up or down the evidence ladder, from grade A to D. Calls with no evidence are reported as dark, never guessed.
Which CRMs and phone systems do you connect to?
Prebuilt adapters cover Zoho, Salesforce, HubSpot, Dynamics 365, GoHighLevel, Pipedrive, Open Dental, Clio, ServiceTitan, Jobber and Housecall Pro, and phone systems from Zoom Phone, Twilio, CallRail, Microsoft Teams, Webex, RingCentral, Dialpad, 8×8, GoTo and CallTrackingMetrics. Anything else connects through the connector kit by API, webhook or export.
How do you handle SOC 2 and HIPAA?
The platform is built to SOC 2 requirements and is HIPAA-ready: health information is excluded by design, and regulated clients run in a dedicated deployment under business associate agreements. Ask us for the security package.
How do agencies work with localGEO?
Agencies run their clients from one workspace with the same scoring for each, and can show a prospect the calls and revenue they're losing before they sign. Talk to us about partner terms.
