- What does 'automated' actually mean?
- GravyBlock decides what will help your business and does it automatically — you do not have to log in each week. Articles are written from your own website's facts and published to your connected site automatically. Google Business Profile posts go out. Google review replies are posted automatically. Outreach goes to real, published contacts of relevant local organizations when one can be found, and a link is only counted once it is verified live. Review alerts surface in your inbox. Your visibility score refreshes. All without you initiating anything.
- Do I need to know anything about SEO?
- No. The scan explains your gaps in plain language. The workspace shows exactly what is running and what to do next. Nothing requires SEO knowledge to act on.
- What happens after the first month?
- On Scale, the $74.99/mo rate is locked for as long as your subscription stays active — it does not go up after month one. On Starter and Pro, the intro discount (code INTRO50) applies to your first month only; after that you're billed the regular price ($59.99 or $299.99). You can cancel or downgrade any time from the billing portal — no phone call required.
- Can I cancel anytime?
- Yes. Cancel from the billing portal in your workspace. No notice period, no cancellation fee. You keep access until the end of your current billing period.
- What do I need to connect for content to publish automatically?
- You connect your WordPress, Webflow or Shopify website once in your workspace, and GravyBlock publishes to it automatically from then on. Squarespace, Wix and a few other platforms aren't supported for automatic publishing yet — on those, content publishing waits for a supported connection, but everything else (Google Business Profile posts, review replies and requests, citations, outreach, AI-visibility checks) keeps running automatically.
- How is GravyBlock different from BrightLocal or Yext?
- BrightLocal and Yext are established platforms for listing management, reviews and reporting. BrightLocal is popular with agencies and Yext with larger or multi-location brands. GravyBlock is a lower-cost option for owner-operated businesses that does a defined set of work automatically: content from your own website's facts, Google Business Profile posts, Google review replies, local outreach and rank tracking.
- Is the free scan really free?
- Yes. No credit card, no account required. You get your full visibility score, top findings, and a prioritized fix list. Upgrade only if you want GravyBlock to handle the fixes automatically.
