Local visibility
See the local picture with its context.
Explore how OwnerCue reviews selected search observations for your services and compares relevant nearby businesses. Dates and coverage stay visible so the result is easier to interpret.
Compare the right things.
Start with the service you want customers to find and the area that matters. Nearby does not always mean relevant: a competitor should make sense for that service and search context.
Coverage belongs beside the result.
Four completed checks out of six planned checks tell a different story from six complete checks. Missing observations should remain missing rather than becoming poor positions.
Results vary by query, place, time and collection method, so each one carries its date and the way it was collected. Google's local results and its ordinary web results are checked separately and counted separately.

Separate website finding
The reviewed beard-trim page has no visible booking link.
In this synthetic Google local-results example, the business appears in the top three in 2 of the 4 checks completed. Two further planned checks were unavailable. These figures illustrate coverage; they are not customer results.
A supported next step or a clear limit.
When a finding suggests a useful action, review the reason and decide whether to act. Sometimes the result is that no clear issue was found in the checks completed. That is useful to know too, and no action is invented to fill the space.
What this does not establish.
Search observations do not show every person's experience, and they do not prove bookings, paid visits or sales lift.
Whether AI assistants mention your business is a separate question with its own evidence requirements. OwnerCue does not assess it today.
Where you can see it today
The free competitor report is available now. Where you and up to three nearby competitors appear in the same local searches, and what their public pages show that yours do not, with the number of checks completed out of those planned. Sample businesses show sample data; for a real business it starts with a review of your website until live ranking data is switched on.

The walkthrough follows one made-up service from the observation to the weekly action.
