2.4
GPA, above 43 of the 61 other local SEO tools we grade
Grid My Business shows where a business ranks on Google Maps at each point of a grid laid over its area, and tracks those rankings over time. It also checks whether AI answers from ChatGPT, Gemini and Google recommend the business, manages Google Business Profiles with AI review replies and posts, and makes white-label reports for agencies.
To get you started, here are 9 things to know about Grid My Business, taken from its own pages and our grades.
- 1
Best for map rank grids with profile tools on one seat

The report card
Best for map rank grids with profile tools on one seat
Grid My Business shows where you rank on Google Maps at each point of a grid, checks whether ChatGPT, Gemini and Google's AI answers recommend you, and handles profile edits, citations, review replies and posts, from $24 a month on yearly billing. The free plan's 250 credits cover about ten scans, and team seats only start at Scale.
| Subject | Grade | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | C | Growth is $24 a month on yearly billing ($290 a year), $29 monthly, for 7,500 credits and 100 profiles, under this category's middle ($31). Team seats and daily updates need Scale at $58. |
| Free plan and trial | C | A free Starter plan: 250 scan credits, about 10 scans, 2 profiles, weekly updates and 30 days of history. You'll hit that fast, and the page doesn't say whether the credits renew. |
| Features | B | Geogrids in 7 sizes, AI answer checks across the grid, profile edits with change alerts, citation checks and NAP distribution across 1,000+ directories, AI review replies, scheduled posts and photos, and white-label reports. It covers the whole job. |
| Ease of use | C | No rating on record. You connect profiles, set grid sizes and keywords and budget credits, where bigger grids cost more than the 5x5 the plan counts assume. |
| Platforms and integrations | B | Web only, with no desktop or phone app. It connects to Google Business Profile and has an MCP server for Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and Antigravity; the API is Enterprise only. |
An A is worth 4 points, a B 3, a C 2, a D 1 and an F nothing. The GPA is the average of the five.
Who Grid My Business is for
- Fits if you want map rank grids, citations and review replies for a Google profile in one tool
- Works for solo agency owners tracking map rankings for up to 100 client profiles
Who it is not for
- Tight if you're staying free: 250 credits cover about 10 scans, with no movable pins and no word on renewal
- Tight if you work in a team, as Growth has one user and seats start at Scale ($58 a month yearly)
- Watch out: scan counts assume a 5x5 grid, so bigger grids use up your credits faster
- Watch out: refunds cover only your first payment within 30 days, and renewals aren't refunded
- Skip it if you need the API, which comes only with the custom-priced Enterprise plan
Good to know
Good for
- Agencies tracking map rankings for dozens of client profiles
- Service-area businesses checking rankings across the places they serve
- Local businesses curious whether AI chat answers recommend them
Worth knowing
- The free plan lacks movable pins and service-area support, and the page does not say whether its 250 credits renew.
- Growth has one user and one workspace; team seats and extra workspaces start with Scale at $58 a month billed annually.
- Scans spend credits and bigger grids cost more: the plan scan counts assume a 5x5 grid.
- Refunds cover only the first payment, within 30 days and once per user; renewal payments are not refunded.

Keep it, or make your own?
Whether this is something you could build for yourself with an AI app builder, and what you would give up.
Keep it
To replace Grid My Business you would be making listings sent to dozens of directories and map apps, which takes an agreement with each. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.
It is one of the better ones too: its GPA of 2.4 is higher than 43 of the 61 other local SEO tools we grade. It costs $288 a year.
What you could make
- Review collection and reports: an app builder makes these well.
What you could not
- Listings sent to dozens of directories and map apps, which takes an agreement with each.
- Daily checks of where your pages rank in search results.
- The same prompts asked of ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Google's AI answers every day, and the answers kept.
- It plugs into other products, Google Business Profile, Claude Desktop and Claude Code among them.
- AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
- The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.
What this rests on. Grid My Business’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
