Does ChatGPT recommend your local business? I measured it

LocalSeen, a new AI visibility measurement tool, scores how often ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, and Google AI Overviews recommend local businesses, providing a 0-100 visibility score and actionable fixes. The tool generates ~25 realistic buyer questions per business and runs them across multiple AI engines to show where businesses rank and why competitors are chosen.
