The New RankCheck.live: Grid Heatmaps, Organic Tracking, and Video Proof in One Local SEO Platform

RankCheck Team··6 min read

RankCheck.live started with one idea: instead of trusting a number in a spreadsheet, you should be able to watch a real Google search happen from your customer's side of town. That idea became our video rank checker, and it struck a nerve — agencies started dropping the recordings straight into client reports.

But a video answers one question at one point on the map. Local SEO lives and dies across an entire service area. So we rebuilt RankCheck.live from the ground up into a complete local rank tracking platform — and today it's live.

Here's what's new, and how the three tools fit together.

What changed, at a glance

Tip

New accounts start with 200 free SERP credits and 3 video scans — no credit card required. That's enough to run about four 7×7 grid scans and see your real map coverage today.

Tool 1: Maps Grid Scanner — see your rank from every block

Google's map pack changes street by street. You might be #1 next to your office and invisible two miles away — and a single rank number hides that completely.

The Maps Grid Scanner runs a real Google Maps search at every point of a geo-grid laid over your service area — anywhere from a 3×3 quick check to a 21×21 deep scan (441 points). Every point is its own live query at that exact latitude and longitude, so each dot on the map shows what a customer standing there would actually see.

The result is a color-coded rank heatmap: green where you win, red where you don't show up.

Every dot is a real Google Maps search from that exact spot — #1 by the shop, invisible across town.

From one scan you can:

Speed matters here: points fill in live on the map, and a 7×7 grid typically finishes in two to three minutes.

A 7×7 scan costs 49 credits — on the Starter plan's 11,000 monthly credits, that's roughly 224 grid scans a month.

Tool 2: Organic Tracker — watch your rank move over time

The map pack is half the story. The Organic Tracker handles the other half: classic organic Google rankings, tracked per keyword and per city, on a schedule.

Pick the keywords that matter, tell us which city to check them from, and choose a cadence — daily, weekly, biweekly, monthly, or on demand. Every check is a real Google search (1 credit per keyword), and results land on a trend chart with your competitors plotted on the same lines.

“emergency plumber” — weekly checks

Organic position, 8 weeks

#14 → #2
#1#5#10#20
your domain competitor A competitor B
Recurring checks plot you and your competitors on the same chart — movement you can put in a client report.

That last part is the point. "We moved from #9 to #4 in Mesa while your top competitor slid to #7" is a sentence you can put in a client report. A screenshot of a chart that shows it is even better.

Tool 3: Video Scanner — proof nobody can argue with

The original RankCheck tool, and still the one nothing else on the market does: the Video Scanner opens a real browser on a residential connection in your target city, performs the actual Google search, and records the entire screen — typing the query, results loading, the map pack, the ads, the scroll.

The whole search, recorded as an MP4 — typing, loading, map pack, scroll — downloadable and shareable.

You get a downloadable MP4 of exactly what Google showed at that moment, from that place. Agencies use it to anchor client meetings; business owners use it to verify what their SEO provider tells them. Either way, it ends the "are these numbers real?" conversation permanently.

Video scans run on their own monthly quota (20–200 depending on plan), separate from your SERP credits — so running video proof never eats your grid budget.

One credit pool, honest pricing

Most local rank trackers make you do math against expiring credits. We made the model as simple as we could:

Who this is built for

Local SEO agencies get the full reporting stack: white-label PDF reports with your logo and colors, shareable public report links, team seats with role-based access, bulk location import, and a read/write API on higher tiers. One subscription covers every client location — no per-location pricing.

Local business owners get the truth about where they actually rank — across their whole service area, over time, with video they can watch. If an agency runs your SEO, this is how you check their homework.
