Does ChatGPT recommend your business?

More customers now ask ChatGPT for the best spa, dentist or plumber in town. We ask it three questions your customers ask and show you who it names.

Why it matters

Customers are asking AI who to go to

45% of people now use ChatGPT or other AI tools for local recommendations, up from 6% the year before.

BrightLocal Local Consumer Review Survey 2026.

It searches the web first

Asked for a local business, ChatGPT runs a web search and reads what comes back: business websites, review sites and local "best of" lists.

It leans on ratings and reviews

Its answers often quote star ratings and review counts, so a business with plenty of recent, well-rated reviews gives it more to go on.

It changes every time

Ask the same question twice and you can get a different list. That is why we ask three ways and count how often you are named.

What to do

Give it more to go on this week

None of this is a trick. It's the same work that gets you found on Google, which still sends most local customers.

  • Fill in your Google Business Profile completely: categories, services, hours and photos.
  • Ask every customer for a Google review after their visit, so new ones keep coming.
  • Reply to your reviews, the good ones and the bad ones.
  • Get listed on the local sites ChatGPT used in your result.
  • Keep your website current: what you do, where you are, and your hours.

FAQ

Questions about the ChatGPT check

Is this the real ChatGPT?

We ask OpenAI's GPT model, with live web search turned on and your city set as the searcher's location: the same kind of model ChatGPT runs on, asked the questions your customers ask. The ChatGPT app can still answer a little differently for each person and each wording, so treat the result as a snapshot, not a ranking.

Why did ChatGPT name a competitor and not me?

It names the businesses it can find and check on the web: clear websites, plenty of recent reviews, and mentions on local "best of" lists. The "Where ChatGPT looked" part of your result lists the sites it read for your city.

Can I pay to be recommended?

Not in the answer itself. ChatGPT now shows ads on its Free and Go plans, but OpenAI says ads are labelled, kept separate, and do not change the answers ChatGPT gives.

How much does ChatGPT matter next to Google?

Google still sends most local customers. In one October 2026 study of 100 websites, ChatGPT sent less than 1% of the visits Google search did, though its visitors were about 4.5 times as likely to convert. A complete Google profile and a steady flow of reviews help with both, so start there.

Will Spokk get me recommended by ChatGPT?

Nobody can promise that. Spokk helps with one of the things ChatGPT reads: new Google reviews coming in every week, because every customer is asked after their visit.
