Why teams pick PlaceOptimizer

Four reasons Indian multi-location brands choose us.

  • INR-native with GST invoicing.

    BrightLocal publishes transparent location-band pricing — roughly $8.99/location effective at its Grow tier, with 100+ locations moving to custom pricing (publicly listed as of June 2026 in BrightLocal's help center) — priced in USD only. PlaceOptimizer prices in rupees with GST invoicing built in.

  • India-first audit heuristics.

    BrightLocal is a respected Western local-SEO toolkit. PlaceOptimizer is built for the cities, categories, and multi-location brands operating across Indian metros — with audit heuristics tuned for how Indian local search actually behaves, not retrofitted from a US/UK checklist.

  • A real, scored audit — free to start.

    Run the same Google Business Profile audit engine Invarya uses in production on your own brand, scored 0–100, with no card required.
