Add what's missing nearby
Ambiance, amenities, or offerings competitors have that you don't yet — the gaps you can fill before anyone else does.
Walk in with a plan, not just a rating
Every report ends with a prioritized list of what to do first — not just numbers to interpret yourself.

Questions
Common questions about competitor analysis
- What is competitor analysis from Google reviews?
- It means reading what customers say about the businesses near you on Google, then looking for patterns: what they are praised for, what they are criticized for, and what no one is doing well. LocalGap does the reading and writes the summary for you.
- How can I see what my competitors' customers complain about?
- Paste your Google Business link into LocalGap. It finds nearby competitors, reads their reviews and lists the complaints that come up most often, so you can see which ones you could solve.
- Is LocalGap free?
- Searching for nearby competitors is free and needs no account. Full gap reports use credits, and every credit compares your business against up to 5 competitors. See the pricing page for the packs and plans.
- What kinds of businesses is it for?
- Any local business with a Google listing: restaurants and cafes, plumbers and other trades, salons and barbers, dentists and clinics, gyms, auto repair shops and more. LocalGap is built for businesses in the USA and the UK.
- How many competitors does a report cover?
- One credit covers your business plus up to 5 nearby competitors, and you see the cost before you run it.
- What do I get in the report?
- A summary of your position, what competitors are praised for, the complaints customers keep making, opportunities nobody is covering, how you compare, and a short list of actions you can take this week.
