Being great on Google Maps doesn’t mean AI will mention you.
of consumers say they use ChatGPT or other AI tools to get recommendations for local businesses.
BrightLocal, early 2026 · sourceIn 200,000 local searches, Google Maps named a tracked business 66% of the time. The AI assistants named it only 32–38% of the time.

BrightLocal, Sep 2026 · sourceWhy AI skips good businesses
AI assistants don’t judge your work. They search the web, read what ranks, and summarize it. If the pages they read don’t mention you, they won’t either.
How we looked: In October 2026 we ran a small spot check of 9 searches, covering plumbers, dentists and med spas in Columbus, Raleigh and Tucson. Each search ran once, using an AI web-search tool as a stand-in for consumer chatbots. It’s a small sample, so treat the results as directional, not proof. The industry studies we cite are linked.
Answers follow “best of” lists
When an answer cited a ranked directory, the businesses it named mostly came from the top of that list. In one city, the three plumbers named matched one ranking site’s top three exactly.
Great reviews aren’t enough on their own
In Tucson, two med spas with perfect 5.0 ratings and more than 260 reviews each weren’t named. Two with fewer reviews were. One has a dedicated “med spa in Tucson” page, and the other leads with a local readers’ choice award.
Local awards and press show up
In Raleigh, every med spa named was connected to a local “Best Of” award or a press release.
Each assistant reads different sources
Google’s AI leans on Google Business Profiles. Industry studies show ChatGPT often cites the BBB and state licensing pages, and Claude and Perplexity lean on Yelp. To get named across the board, you have to be strong in all of those places.

Questions owners ask us
Can you guarantee my med spa will be recommended by ChatGPT or Google's AI?
No, and you should be wary of anyone who says they can. AI answers change from one ask to the next. In BrightLocal's 2026 study of 200,000 local AI searches, repeat runs of the same question shared only 20–33% of the businesses they named. What we can do is improve the things those answers are built from, which are the lists, listings, pages and press they cite, and then measure how often you're named over many runs, so you see the trend instead of one lucky screenshot.
Why would an AI skip a med spa with great reviews?
Because the AI usually isn't reading your reviews directly. It searches the web and summarizes what it finds, so it leans on whatever pages it pulls up. Those are often “best of” directories, local award pages, Yelp, the Google Business Profile, and clinics' own city pages. In our own spot check, two Tucson med spas with perfect 5.0 ratings and more than 260 reviews each were left out, while two with fewer reviews were named. One had a dedicated “med spa in Tucson” page, and the other leads with a local readers' choice award.
Which AI assistants do you check?
ChatGPT, Google's AI (AI Overviews, AI Mode and Gemini), Perplexity and Claude. Your free snapshot uses one assistant, and the full audit uses all four, running each question three times.
How is this different from a $29 AI-visibility audit or a tracking tool?
Those tools tell you that you're not showing up and hand you a to-do list. We tell you why, specific to your city and your competitors, and then we write the fixes. On the monthly plan, we make them for you.
