LOCAL SEARCH

See where your business is strong, where competitors are winning, and how local discovery changes between Google Maps and AI recommendations.

One market. Two questions: Where do you rank, and where does AI recommend you?

WHY BOTH VIEWS MATTER

Google Maps visibility and AI recommendations tell different parts of the local story

A single local rank or a single AI answer can hide important gaps. Scorivra compares the same market from two discovery surfaces so you can see where your business is visible, where it disappears, and where competitors take its place.

  1. Use Maps Grid to find geographic ranking gaps that a single location check can hide.
  2. Use AI Local Grid to see whether AI recommends your business across the same local market or favors competitors instead.
  3. Compare both views before deciding which local areas, pages, listings or competitive gaps deserve attention first.

The grid methodology powers the comparison in the background. The result you use is simpler: strong areas, weak areas, missing areas and competitor gaps.

  • Compare ranking by location
  • Spot competitor pressure
  • Track weekly change
02

AI Local Grid — see where AI recommends you

Where does AI recommend you?

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between Maps Grid and AI Local Grid?

Maps Grid shows where your business ranks in Google Maps across your local market. AI Local Grid shows where Gemini mentions or recommends your business across that market. One answers where you rank; the other answers where AI recommends you.

What can I learn from Maps Grid?

You can see which parts of your market have strong rankings, where your position drops, and where competitors are more visible. This helps reveal local gaps that a single rank check can miss.

What can I learn from AI Local Grid?

You can see where Gemini mentions or recommends your business, where it does not, and which competitors appear instead. This adds a geographic view to AI-driven local discovery.

How is AI Local Grid different from regular AI Visibility?

AI Visibility tracks whether your business appears for selected questions over time across ChatGPT, Gemini and Google AI Mode. AI Local Grid adds a geographic view for local-intent questions. AI Visibility answers whether AI recommends your business; AI Local Grid helps show where that local recommendation appears.

Why does AI Local Grid use Gemini?

AI Local Grid applies the same geographic grid concept used for Google Maps rank tracking to AI recommendations. Gemini supports latitude-and-longitude-based location targeting, allowing Scorivra to check AI results from each grid point instead of relying only on a city- or country-level location. This makes it possible to see how AI recommendations change across a real local market. Broader AI Visibility separately tracks ChatGPT, Gemini and Google AI Mode.

How often is Local Search updated?

Daily Google Maps Rank tracks enabled local keywords each day. Maps Grid and AI Local Grid provide weekly geographic views. Their measurement dates are shown so you can compare changes over time.

Does AI Local Grid reproduce every individual AI result?

No. It measures location-based AI responses across a defined local market. Individual AI experiences can still vary for reasons beyond location.

Know where your local visibility is strong — and where it is not.

Use Maps Grid and AI Local Grid together to find the areas that deserve attention before competitors capture more local discovery.
