Merchynt Paige represents a maturation of AI in local search: moving from dashboards that tell you what to do, toward agents that simply do it.
On sign-up, Merchynt grants a free audit that scans 45 on-page and off-page signals—category selection, Q&A completeness, duplicate listings, citation consistency, review velocity, photo geotag accuracy—and delivers an actionable score plus prioritized fixes. The audit itself is generated in under 30 seconds by chaining GPT-4o mini with deterministic rule scripts.
Paige generates up to three Google Posts per week, alternating among offer, event, product, and update types. Each post contains an emoji-enhanced hook, 100–120-word body, and a CTA button (“Book,” “Order online,” “Call now”) dynamically chosen based on the primary conversion goal set by the user. Posts are natively scheduled to drop at the hour of peak local search interest.
New reviews trigger a webhook; Paige drafts a response within 5 minutes, signs it with the owner’s first name, and either posts immediately or queues for approval. The tone of the reply is adjusted by sentiment analysis: five-star reviews receive gratitude and subtle upselling; one- and two-star reviews receive empathy, a private-contact invitation, and a soft ask for reconsideration once resolved.
Paige monitors the “Questions & Answers” section and auto-answers queries using the knowledge base plus previous Q&A pairs. When confidence falls below 80 %, it notifies the owner via email and Slack.
