AI visibility for local businesses in plain language

In short

See how natural local questions, clear business information and local proof work together. Use genuine service areas, local proof and useful location information rather than duplicated city pages.

Why it matters

Customers can ask an AI assistant a complete question and receive a short answer with only a few businesses. A single chat is an example; a fixed set of questions across several services reveals the broader pattern.

Three actions you can take

1. Check that your main services, locations and proof are clear on your website. 2. Answer one important customer question on an existing relevant page. 3. Repeat the same measurement afterwards so the change remains comparable.

What Roby checks

Roby asks approved customer questions in ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude and Perplexity. The report shows whether your business is mentioned, which competitors appear, which sources are available and which three improvements matter first.

Sources and date

Usage figures on RobyMonitor.com refer to publications from Eurostat (2025), OpenAI (2025) and Google (2025). AI answers can change, so always check the measurement date, complete question, answer and source before making a decision.
