## Changelog

#### 2026-10-20

*Features*

- Every grid point now says how it moved since your last scan: `up`, `down`, `same`, `new` or `lost`, so a business that drops off the list no longer shows a blank.
- Competitors you track now stay in each other's top-competitor list, flagged as tracked, so the list shows who really owns the grid.
- Runs return one summary row per business and keyword by default, with the rank at every point inside it. Per-point rows are one switch away.

*Fixes*

- Runs no longer fail when Google Maps turns a request away; they carry on from another connection.
- A grid that can't be searched as a local customer now stops without charging, instead of returning ranks that don't reflect the area.
- "Rank at the business" is now read at each tracked business's own location, so competitors on a shared grid get their own figure.
- With heatmaps turned off, summary rows no longer carry a report link that leads nowhere.
- Heatmap legends now match the rank depth you checked, and the metrics line on the image is no longer cut off.

#### 2026-10-19

*Features*

- Initial release. See where a business ranks on Google Maps at every point of a grid around it, with average rank, share of local voice, top-3 share, competitors ranked on the same scans, the change since your last scan, a heatmap image and a shareable HTML report.
