Multi-location AI visibility, explained
Multi-location AI visibility is how often AI engines name your brand when buyers ask from different places. The same question, such as which dentist to see or which meeting-notes tool teams use, can get a different answer in Austin than in London, because engines weigh local sources, local reviews and local competitors. A national number hides that: you can look strong overall and be absent in the city that matters most.
Tracking by location means running the same buyer questions as if asked from each market, then comparing who gets named, which competitors lead and where demand is highest. It answers practical questions: which branch is invisible, which market has a new competitor, and where a local page would help.
Proofsource lets each brand add up to 25 locations, or Global, from a searchable catalog of countries, states, cities and places. It splits your question budget across those locations, shows competitors and demand for each market, and lets you aim fixes at a single place. If a place is missing from the catalog, you can request it.

Questions about Multi-location AI visibility
How many locations can I track per brand?
Up to 25 per brand. Each can be a country, a city or an area, or you can choose Global.
Why do AI answers differ by location?
Engines weigh local sources, reviews and competitors when a question has a local angle, and some answers change with the country the question comes from. The same question can name different brands in different cities.
Which engines does location tracking cover?
Every engine your plan covers, up to 10 AI engines including ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Google AI Overviews, Gemini, Microsoft Copilot and Grok.
How is the question budget shared across locations?
Proofsource splits one question budget across a brand's locations, so each market gets its own set of questions without a separate plan per market.
What if my city is not in the catalog?
Use Request place to ask for it. The catalog covers countries, states, cities and places, and missing ones can be requested from the same screen.
What is a location fix?
A fix aimed at one market, such as a city page, a local listing or local proof, so the work goes where the gap is.
How is this different from Profound or Peec region tracking?
Profound and Peec track answers by country and region well, and Profound covers a very wide region list. Proofsource adds city and place level tracking from a catalog, shows competitors and demand per location, and can aim fixes at a single place.
Does it work for single-location local businesses?
Yes. A local business can track its own city, nearby areas and Global to see how local and general answers differ.
