Look elsewhere if
- Tight if you scan large grids, as a full 13×13 uses up to 169 credits and plan credits don't roll over
- Tight if you're staying free, as 50 credits a month is about one 7×7 scan
- Pricey if you want alerts, client portals or white-label, which start at Agency, $149 a month yearly
- Watch out: 21×21 grids and the multi-location dashboard are only on Enterprise, $499 a month yearly
- Skip it if you want profile posting or review replies, as it only tracks rankings

- Fits if you check a local business's Maps ranking across town now and then, without a monthly bill
- Works for service-area businesses whose address is hidden on Google
Look elsewhere if
- Skip it if you need organic web rankings, other search engines or AI answers, as it tracks Google Maps only
- Tight if you scan often, as each grid point is a credit and a scheduled 13×13 scan uses 169 every run
- Tight if you're staying free, as the 100 credits never refill and exports, sharing and scheduling all need a pack
- Watch out: white-label exports start at Starter ($19.99), and refunds come only within 14 days with under 10% of credits used
- Not for you if you want scans fed into reports or dashboards, as there are no integrations or API

Key features
Geogrid
- Grid scans and heatmaps
- Each grid point runs its own Google Maps search from those coordinates, and the results are drawn as a color-coded heatmap of where the business shows up.
- Credits that skip repeat points
- One credit pays for one grid point, but points cached in the last 72 hours, water and uninhabited land are not billed, so a rescan usually costs less.
- AI insights and action plans
- An AI reading of each heatmap lists fixes by priority and the zone each one targets. Free and Starter get a few a month; Freelance and up get unlimited.
- Scheduled rescans and alerts
- Rescans run daily, weekly or monthly and email the change since the last run. Alerts on ranking drops start at the Agency plan.
- Client portals and white-label reports
- Agency and Enterprise share a branded, login-free portal link with each client and put the agency's own logo and domain on exports.
- API, webhooks and lead widget
- A REST API from Freelance up, webhooks to Slack, Discord and automation tools, and on Enterprise an embeddable rank checker that captures leads.
GridRankTracker
- Geo-grid scans
- Checks a Google Business Profile's Maps ranking from every point of a grid, from 3×3 up to 13×13 (169 points), and points can be skipped.
- Rank heat map and stats
- Each scan is drawn as a heat map of positions across the area, with summary stats, on every plan including the free account.
- Competitor data per point
- Shows which businesses rank at each grid point and can overlay a competitor's positions on the map; the full competitor profile analysis needs a paid pack.
- Scheduled scans
- Paid packs can set any keyword to rescan daily, weekly or monthly, with results kept in the scan history.
- Before/after comparison
- Compare two scans point by point and export the result as a PNG or CSV, or share it through a public link.
- Client share links
- Completed scans can be shared through a public link that clients open without an account; white-label exports start with Starter.

How this page was made
- The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
- The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
- Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
