“Who's the best plumber near me?”
AI already answered. Was it you?
A burst pipe at 9pm used to mean a Google search. Now it's a question to ChatGPT — which names two or three companies and the homeowner calls one. MentionedOn checks those answers for your city every day and tells you whether you're on the shortlist.

Find out what AI says about your plumbing company
An AI answer to "best plumber near me" lists a handful of companies — not ten pages of results. You're named or you're not in the running.
Plumbing is urgent. The homeowner asks, gets an answer, and calls — often before they ever open a maps app.
One repipe or water-heater job can be thousands. A single answer per week going to a rival is real lost revenue.

Frequently asked questions
Do people really pick a plumber with ChatGPT?+
Increasingly, yes — especially for non-emergencies and first-time homeowners who don't have a plumber yet. "Who's the best plumber in [city]" returns a short, confident list of named companies, and that list is the new shortlist.
I have great Google reviews. Doesn't that cover me?+
Reviews are one input, not a guarantee. AI assistants blend reviews, directories, local guides, and their own training into two or three names — and plenty of 5-star shops never get named while a well-covered competitor does. We measure that gap for your company and city.
How does MentionedOn check my AI visibility?+
Every day we ask the four major assistants the plumbing questions homeowners in your city ask — unprimed, exactly like a customer would. We record whether you're mentioned, how you're described, and who's named instead of you.
What does it cost?+
The Local plan is $49/month for one business — less than a single service call — with a 14-day free trial and no credit card. Multi-location and franchise operators use Portfolio at $149/month.
