Visibility Intelligence

Get found, chosen, and trusted locally.

Local visibility is the first customer interaction most businesses never see. Monitor listings accuracy, Google Business Profile strength, and search presence in one place.

The full picture

What is Visibility Intelligence?

Visibility Intelligence is how you finally see the part of your business you can't watch from behind the counter — the moment someone searches for what you do and either finds you, finds a competitor, or finds a version of your information that's out of date.

Aetherium IQ tracks how discoverable you are across local search, maps, directories, and the newer answer engines customers are starting to trust. Your Google Business Profile is scored against a 14-point checklist with fix-this links; local rank is mapped block-by-block around each location with weekly heat maps; and listing consistency, photo freshness, and Q&A activity are watched continuously so drift is caught early.

Instead of guessing why the phone isn't ringing, you get a clear read on where you show up, where you don't, and what to fix first so the customers already looking for you actually land on your door. Small fixes — a corrected phone number, a missing category, a stale set of hours — often move visibility more than any ad spend would.

14-point Google profile score

A live checklist covering business info, hours, categories, attributes, services, photos, and more — with fix-this links right beside every gap.

Local rank heat maps

See exactly where you rank on Google Maps for a given keyword, block by block, in a 5×5 grid around each location.

Answer-engine coverage

Defensible growth tracking

Baseline captured on day one, high-water-mark logic — so reported growth stands up to a skeptical owner.

Being findable is the quietest form of marketing there is. Visibility Intelligence makes sure the customers already looking for you actually land on your door.

14-point Google Business Profile score

A live checklist covering business info, hours, categories, attributes, services, photos, and more. Every item shows exactly what's missing — with a fix-this link right beside it — and photo freshness is tracked on a rolling 30-day window so your profile never quietly goes stale.

Self-connect via Google, in a click

You connect your own Google Business Profile through Google's own sign-in — no password handover, no third-party access agreement, no waiting on IT. Token refresh is handled quietly in the background so replies and updates never silently fail.

Local rank heat maps

See exactly where you rank on Google Maps for a given keyword, block by block. Each location gets a 5×5 geo-grid heat map, AI-suggested keywords based on your category and services, and weekly auto-scans on up to ten keywords — so 'we rank #1 within a three-block radius' becomes something you can prove, not guess.

Listings accuracy

Consistency across name, address, phone, hours, and services — with support from a specialist listings partner when you want it managed for you.

Listings syndication (add-on)

For businesses that want their information pushed everywhere it should live: syndication to hundreds of directories, data-aggregator amplification to search platforms and mobile apps, and GPS-mapping coverage into in-car navigation and voice-search surfaces most competitors ignore. Available as a standalone add-on, not bundled by default.

Defensible growth tracking

A review-count baseline is captured the moment you connect, and a high-water-mark rule guarantees reported growth never appears to decrease because a review was removed — the numbers stand up to a skeptical client or partner.

Discovery gaps

Understand where prospective customers are looking but not finding you.

Search & answer engine visibility

Monitor how your business appears in traditional search, map results, and answer engines as those experiences evolve.

How it works

From signal to action.

  1. Step 1

    Connect

    You self-connect your Google Business Profile in one click — no third-party access hand-off.

  2. Step 2

    Score

    The 14-point checklist scores your profile completeness, and heat maps map your rank block-by-block around each location.

  3. Step 3

    Monitor

    Listings, profile updates, photo freshness, and keyword heat maps are scanned on a schedule so drift is caught early.

  4. Step 4

    Fix

    You get a prioritized fix list — the small changes that move the needle first, not a spreadsheet of noise.

Who it's for

Built for teams that live in the details.

Single-location owners

You depend on local search for the phone to ring. See exactly where you show up and where you don't.

Multi-location brands

Consistency across dozens or hundreds of listings and heat maps for each location — without a full-time listings manager.

New locations

Get discoverable faster with a clear checklist of what to fill in, verify, and monitor.

Franchise operations

Enforce brand standards across every location's local presence without micromanaging each owner.

Outcomes you can expect

Fewer tabs. Clearer decisions. Better weeks.

More discovery calls

Fixing accuracy issues often moves the phone before any ad spend does.

Proof of local rank

Heat maps turn 'are we ranking?' into a picture you can show a partner or a board.

Stronger Google profile

The 14-point score turns profile optimization into a checklist instead of a mystery.

Answer-engine ready

Your business shows up correctly in the AI-driven search experiences customers are starting to trust.
