Straight answers.
Everything people usually ask us about Local Services Ads, AI search and how our products work. Don't see yours? Ask a person.
The basics
What is RadiusLocal.ai?
RadiusLocal.ai is the home of CallRadius and ClickRadius, plus their self-serve Signal versions. Together they help local service businesses get found at the top of Google Local Services Ads and inside AI answers.
What are Google Local Services Ads?
Local Services Ads appear at the very top of Google for local service searches, above paid search ads, the map and organic results. You pay per lead, not per click, and approved businesses show a Google Verified badge. Google lists 114 eligible business types in the US.
What is AI search optimization (GEO)?
Generative engine optimization makes your business easy for AI assistants like ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity to understand, trust and cite: structured data, accurate facts that match across the web, and content that answers real customer questions with sources.
Do I need both CallRadius and ClickRadius?
No. They solve different problems and each works on its own. Many local businesses benefit from both. The free LSA Score and AI Readiness Score show you which gap is bigger.
What's the difference between managed products and Signal?
Managed products do the work for you. Signal products are self-serve and read-only: they show what's happening and what to do, and you stay in control of the changes.
CallRadius
How does CallRadius manage my Local Services Ads?
Eight engines run continuously: lead triage and lead feedback, call intelligence, budget optimization, lead-response readiness, reviews, position and competitors, geographic evidence, and seasonal and schedule tuning. An experienced LSA manager owns the strategy and the exceptions.
Will it change my ads without asking?
Routine, reversible adjustments run within approved guardrails and are logged. Material or hard-to-undo changes need your manager's approval, and ambiguous situations alert a person instead of acting.
How does CallRadius handle junk leads?
AI classifies every lead. Only classifications above an 85% confidence threshold are flagged, and clearly invalid charged leads get honest feedback through Google's lead rating; ambiguous leads are held for human judgment. Google decides any credit.
What does it cost?
$499 per Local Services account per month, with no setup fee. A card goes on file at sign-up, but nothing is charged until Google approves your account and it can receive leads. Month-to-month on 30 days' notice. Ad spend is paid directly to Google.
ClickRadius
What does ClickRadius change on my site?
Titles, meta descriptions, image alt text, internal links and structured data, deployed through WordPress, Shopify, a JavaScript snippet or Cloudflare. Every change is versioned, verified with a re-scan and can be reverted with one click.
Which AI engines do you monitor?
ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Claude and Grok, checked weekly with your target questions. We track mentions, URL citations and sentiment separately.
How does the trial work?
The first 14 days are a trial. A payment method is required to start, and cancelling before the trial ends avoids the first charge. After that it's month-to-month with no cancellation fee.
Signal
When can I get Signal?
CallRadius Signal enrollment is opening soon. ClickRadius Signal is in development and planned for 2027. Join the early-access list to hear first.
Does Signal change my ads or website?
No. Signal is read-only. ClickRadius Signal Pro prepares repairs and articles for you or your developer to install.
Trust & agencies
Do you guarantee results?
No. Ad results depend on Google, and AI answers depend on each provider. What we guarantee is transparency: you'll see exactly what the platform did and what changed.
Are the screens on this site real?
Yes, they're the actual product screens, shown with fictional demo businesses and synthetic figures. No client data appears on this site.
Can my agency white-label your products?
Yes. Agencies buy at a confidential wholesale rate and set their own retail price, your brand is on everything, and we never solicit your clients. See the agency program.
Ask us anything.
A real person will reply, usually within one business day.
