Invisible to AI search
Customers ask AI and get back a few names. If yours isn't one of them, you never knew you lost them.
For local businesses
See how your business shows up on ChatGPT
Your customers are finding local businesses by asking AI — ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, or Claude — not by searching Google. Sonarlight shows you exactly how those AI tools answer when customers ask, and what it takes to become the one they recommend.

ClaudePrado Café, a neighbourhood pick…Same question, four AI tools — and each recommends a different business. Is one of them yours?
Every day, more people ask ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, and Claude where to eat, who to call, and what to buy. AI answers with a short list of names — and most local businesses never find out whether they were on it, or whether what AI said about them was even true. Sonarlight makes that answer visible, and gives you a clear way to improve it.

"best ramen near Commercial Drive, Vancouver"
The gap
AI decides who gets found. Most businesses can't see it.
AI is the new way people find local businesses. It's invisible to the tools you already use — and it doesn't always get the facts right.

Outdated
AI repeats wrong facts
Old hours, a wrong address, a disconnected number — stated confidently, and impossible to catch without checking.
