Pricing

One location. One weekly reading. Monthly or yearly.

guidepost measures whether the major AI search providers recommend your business, who wins instead, which sources influence the answers, and where to look next. Both prices buy the same monitoring. The extra fee is only if you want us to make the listed edits after a gap is confirmed.

What weekly monitoring includes

  • 12 homeowner-style questions for your trade and city
  • OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini and Perplexity with web search enabled, including Claude, which the free reading does not cover
  • 3 runs per question on ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity, 1 on Claude, 120 observations each week. An observation is one AI answer tested.
  • Every raw answer, recommendation, competitor and cited source
  • One place to look next, and a weekly owner email

One location. No account integrations. The free reading does not include Claude or the three-run weekly pattern.

Optional, after a confirmed gap

$499 once · not monthly

Requires an active $149/mo or $1,490/yr plan. One open job at a time. Checkout lives in the dashboard after we confirm the written list. It is not a second subscription.

What $499 buys

  • The written list on this card, after we confirm the gap
  • Up to three corrections: one existing website page and two existing profiles
  • You approve the words first. We make the edits.
  • We check they published. The next weekly reading measures again.

What it does not buy

  • Unlimited or monthly edits
  • A new website or extra locations
  • Rank #1, more jobs, or guaranteed AI mentions
  • Mass directory submissions, fake reviews, or schema-as-ranking

Start monitoring first. After a weekly reading, open Where to look and answer yes, no, or not sure on the cited page. We do not sell this job from a host name alone.

What the number means

A result such as "recommended in 32 of 120 answers" is a measured count, not a promise that the ChatGPT app on a phone will match it. Those apps and this measurement can disagree. Asking three times makes that visible.

Details

Are these the ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or Perplexity apps?
No. These are provider APIs with web search or grounding on. Signed-in consumer apps can differ.
Does paying yearly change the reading?
No. Monthly and yearly buy the same 120 observations a week. Yearly is prepaid for twelve months.
Can guidepost make the edits?
After we confirm a gap, yes: one existing page and two existing profiles for $499 once. That does not control what an AI says next week. The next reading measures again.
How do I cancel?
Monthly billing cancels in the Stripe portal. Yearly is paid up front for the year. One location either way.
