Most of your best customers are close by - and most make up their mind on Google long before they reach your door. If your listing is thin or out of date, that decision goes to someone else. Local makes sure the version they find is worth choosing.
Definition
Local makes sure that when your neighbourhood goes looking, the version of you they find is accurate, active, and worth choosing. It builds one true profile of your business, finds the gaps against your Google Business Profile, handles your reviews, writes your posts, and generates the structured data Google needs.
What you get
Local keeps the version of you that customers find accurate, active, and worth choosing - from your profile to your reviews to the schema Google reads.
Local reads your own website and pulls together the facts that matter - what you do, where you are, when you're open, what you offer - into a single clean profile, and sharpens your description so it reads the way you'd want a customer to hear it.
Local compares that profile against your live Google Business Profile and gives you a clear health score, plus exactly what's missing, wrong, or out of date - so you stop guessing whether your hours, address, or services are right where it counts.
Every Google review in one place, with your rating trend, sentiment at a glance, and who's still waiting on a reply. Local even drafts thoughtful, on-brand responses, so staying on top of your reputation takes minutes.
See how many people viewed you, searched your name, called, or asked for directions - and how those numbers move over time. Local explains what's changing and why, so you're not staring at a chart.
Local writes Google Business Profile posts ready to schedule, so your listing stays active and current - a signal to both customers and Google that you're open, present, and paying attention.
Local generates the structured data that helps search engines understand and trust your business - the behind-the-scenes work that quietly helps you rank in local results, without you touching code.
The payoff
An accurate, active listing is what turns a nearby search into a customer.
Wrong hours and missing details cost you quietly, every day. Local catches them.
Reviews answered well build trust with everyone who reads them next.
Real numbers on how people find and reach you - explained in plain language.
Scale
Your plan shapes how much Local does for you - how often it checks your listing, how many reviews and posts it handles, how deep the insights go. As you grow, Local grows with you, keeping more of your local presence accurate and active on your behalf.
The people looking for you are right around the corner. We make sure they find the real you - and pick it.
When your neighbourhood goes looking, be the one they pick.

CLEO by RegenAI is the autonomous Presence Engine - a closed-loop platform that unifies search engine optimisation, AI answer visibility, structured content publishing, and social signal amplification into one integrated system with a compounding feedback mechanism between every layer.
Large language models including ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Perplexity, and Claude now answer user queries directly with cited sources. Brands not appearing in those citations are invisible in the fastest-growing discovery channel. Traditional analytics tools do not capture AI citation share. Brands are losing reach they cannot measure with standard dashboards.
The foundation of the Presence Engine. Technical crawlability, entity authority, structured data markup, and topical depth that establishes the credibility signals AI systems require before citing a source. A brand that cannot be crawled cannot be cited. A brand without entity authority cannot be trusted by language models.
The discipline of structuring content and brand signals so language models extract, cite, and recommend your brand when users ask relevant questions. GEO is not traditional SEO. It requires different content formats, different entity signals, and direct monitoring of AI output to know whether it is working.
One brand voice feeds all four surfaces: set once, carried unchanged across Local, Search, AI Search, and Social. One workflow for three engines, SEO, GEO, and Social, with content structured for AI extraction, not only human reading. No other platform writes in a single, locked brand voice across all four.
Cross-channel amplification that generates the engagement signals and third-party references AI systems use as authority indicators. Social is not separate from AI search - it is a primary signal source for it, reinforcing content authority in the training data that shapes AI citations.
Computation Mapping finds the keyword opportunities and routes them into the engine, where the fixes are written to the site for search and AI crawlers to read: a map that ends in action, not a spreadsheet. Without orchestration, four products; with it, one engine.
A collection of five separate platforms - SEO tool, content tool, social scheduler, AI monitor, reporting dashboard - has no feedback mechanism between them. Each optimises for its own metric. There is no loop, and therefore no compounding. CLEO routes monitoring output directly into content creation. Published content triggers social amplification. Amplification results inform the next monitoring cycle. Authority accumulates with each iteration.
Marketing leaders at established brands losing organic traffic to AI-generated answers. Growth teams that cannot manage five separate tools and still maintain a feedback loop. Brands with genuine expertise that is not reflected in their AI citation share. Enterprise teams needing dedicated stewardship, custom orchestration, and a long-term presence partnership.
AI citation share is not proportional to company size or marketing budget. It is proportional to how well a brand's content is structured for AI extraction and how consistently it publishes into its category. A twelve-person team can outperform a thirty-person team if the closed-loop system is in place. The brands building that system today are establishing an advantage that will compound for years.
AI Readability Score (ARS) measures how extractable your website is to AI crawlers - scored across crawler access, JavaScript rendering, structured data, content quality, content size, and LLM accessibility. AI Visibility Score (GEO) measures how often your brand appears in AI-generated answers across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, and Claude. Infrastructure Readiness measures the technical baseline - robots.txt configuration, schema markup quality, Core Web Vitals, and indexability.
