Hi Product Hunt, I'm Gintaras, maker of Locan.
I've done local SEO for small businesses for 8+ years, and the thing I kept running into was owners paying every month for "rank trackers" and "GBP optimizers" that mostly resell public Google data behind a subscription. So we took the checks we actually run for clients and made them free - no account, no card, no trial that expires.
What's live today:
• Google Business Profile Optimizer - score out of 100 + AI-written fixes (description, posts, FAQs, review replies)
• GBP Category Optimizer - compares your categories with the businesses that actually rank for your keyword
• Local Rank Checker - 3x3 / 5x5 Google Maps grid around your address
• AI Visibility Checker - does a ChatGPT/Gemini-style assistant name your business for "best X near me"?
• LocalBusiness Schema Generator, Google Review Link + QR poster, AI Review Response Generator
What's different: the homepage is a request form. If the tool you need doesn't exist, describe it and we build it for free, usually within 3 days, then email everyone who asked for it. We'd rather build what you ask for than guess.
The code is open source (AGPL-3.0): https://github.com/vaitko/locan-... - so you can check that your inputs are never stored and see exactly what the tools call.
Honest limits: the rank grid approximates Maps results through location-biased Places queries, and the AI visibility check simulates assistant answers with one model, so treat it as directional.
Two questions for you: which tool would you request first, and what would make you trust a free tool enough to use it on your own business? I'll be here all day answering.
