Where RankAutomatic is different
We run your local SEO. Nothing ships without your OK.
RankAutomatic is local-first: GBP, map rankings and AI visibility are the core, not an add-on to a national suite.
Automation you supervise: every change is drafted for your approval, and autopilot is opt-in per channel.
AI visibility checks across ChatGPT, Gemini and Google's AI Overviews, tied to your local presence.
Common questions
Still have a question?
Talk to the people who build it. We answer every message ourselves.
Is RankAutomatic a SearchAtlas alternative for local businesses?
Yes, if your focus is a local business. RankAutomatic covers local SEO, the GBP, content and AI visibility in a narrower tool than a broad SEO suite.
Does RankAutomatic do site audits like SearchAtlas?
Yes. RankAutomatic runs a full multi-page website SEO crawl, plus the local and AI visibility checks built for local businesses.
