Local Falcon API
Everything Local Falcon does, inside your own tools.
The Local Falcon API gives you programmatic access to the whole platform: local rank tracking on Google Maps and Apple Maps, AI visibility on ChatGPT, Gemini, AI Overviews, and AI Mode, every report type, campaigns, Falcon Guard, and Google Business Profile management. Build client dashboards, feed your data warehouse, automate reporting, or give your own software local and AI search data.
One request runs a 7x7 geo-grid scan. Read the API documentation
More than 70 endpoints across the platform.
Local rank tracking
Run geo-grid scans on Google Maps and Apple Maps and get rankings at every point, plus ARP, ATRP, and SoLV.
AI visibility
Scan ChatGPT, Gemini, Google AI Overviews, and Google AI Mode and get Share of AI Voice, the AI's answers, and sources.
Every report
List and retrieve Scan, Competitor, Trend, Keyword, Location, Campaign, Falcon Guard, and Reviews Analysis reports.
Campaigns
Create, edit, run, pause, resume, and reactivate scheduled campaigns across locations and keywords.
Google Business Profile
Read and update connected profiles: hours, posts, photos, services, attributes, links, review replies, and performance.
Falcon Guard and locations
Search for and save business locations, and add, pause, resume, or remove Falcon Guard protection.
Use fieldmasks to return only the fields you need, so responses stay small and fast.
Track AI search visibility programmatically.
Run the same scan on AI platforms by changing one parameter. Local Falcon asks the AI from every point on your grid and reports how often it recommends the brand.
- Platforms: ChatGPT, Gemini, Google AI Overviews, and Google AI Mode
- Metrics: Share of AI Voice (SAIV) for the brand and its competitors
- The answers themselves, plus the sources each AI relied on
- Background processing: AI scans return right away and finish in the background, so you check the reports endpoint for the result

Manage profiles in bulk, from your own systems.
For locations connected to a Google account, the API reads and writes the live Google Business Profile. Update hours across hundreds of locations, publish posts on a schedule, or reply to reviews from your own workflow.

Built-in safety: actions that can't be undone, like deleting a post or replacing all services, only run when your request includes a confirmation token. A mistaken call changes nothing.

Included with your plan.

On-Demand Scan API
Need raw Google Maps results for specific coordinates, without saving locations to an account? The On-Demand Scan API is billed per request, separately from credits: $199 a month plus $0.0032 per call. Google Maps only.
