Location Pulse

Location Pulse is Rankup's reputation and perception monitoring product. It helps agencies detect problems across multi-location brands by analyzing review themes, AI engine responses, and branded search signals.

What Location Pulse does

For each client location, Location Pulse continuously monitors:

• Review themes - extracts recurring topics from Google Business Profile reviews using AI, identifying what customers praise and complain about at each location
• AI perception - checks how AI platforms (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews) describe and recommend each location, flagging inaccuracies or negative framing
• Branded search signals - monitors search queries that include the brand name to detect emerging reputation issues

Key features

• Location management - import and manage up to 200 locations per client via CSV
• Health scoring - portfolio-level dashboard with per-location health scores (0-100)
• AI perception monitoring - weekly scans of AI engines for brand mentions
• Remediation briefs - AI-generated content recommendations to address detected problems

How it integrates

Location Pulse writes remediation briefs to a shared queue. When the Content Calendar Engine is active, it reads these briefs as high-priority input for calendar planning. When Brand Radar is active, narrative alerts flow back into Location Pulse to surface emerging threats.
