## Make Your Clients Discoverable in AI — In 15 Minutes
|
||||
|
||||
### The Problem
|
||||
|
||||
- **98.8% of local businesses are invisible to AI.** ChatGPT recommends just 1.2% of local businesses.
|
||||
- 45% of consumers now use AI tools to find local businesses — up from 6% just one year ago.
|
||||
- Your clients are losing customers to competitors who show up in AI results — even if your clients do better work.
|
||||
- **They don't even know they're invisible.** They just see fewer customers and can't figure out why.
|
||||
|
||||
### The Solution
|
||||
|
||||
`geolocal.io` is the infrastructure that makes local businesses **discoverable, bookable, and payable** directly through AI assistants like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude.
|
||||
|
||||
**How it works:** One JSON file at `/.well-known/mcp-server`. That's it.
|
||||
|
||||
No coding. No servers to manage. No API keys. No security audits. Just a file that tells AI agents: *"This business exists, here's what it does, here's how to book it."*
|
||||
|
||||
### What AI Sees (Before vs. After)
|
||||
|
||||
**Before `geolocal.io`:**
|
||||
> ChatGPT: *"I found some mechanics in Frisco..."* (generic list, no details, can't book)
|
||||
|
||||
**After `geolocal.io`:**
|
||||
> ChatGPT: *"I found **Frisco German Auto Specialists** — a family-run shop with 40 years of experience specializing in BMW, Mercedes, and Audi. They're open today until 6 PM. I can book you a 9 AM slot and collect a $25 deposit to secure it."*

## Partner Economics
|
||||
|
||||
### Recurring Commission
|
||||
|
||||
| Tier | Your Share | Per Client (Pro $49/mo) | 20 Clients/mo |
|
||||
|------|-----------|----------------------|---------------|
|
||||
| **Affiliate** | 20% | $9.80 | $196/mo |
|
||||
| **Partner** (10+ clients) | 25% | $12.25 | $245/mo |
|
||||
| **Strategic** (50+ clients) | 30% | $14.70 | $294/mo |
|
||||
|
||||
**This is passive, recurring revenue.** Set it up once, earn it every month.
|
||||
|
||||
### What You Offer Your Clients
|
||||
|
||||
| Plan | Price | What They Get |
|
||||
|------|-------|---------------|
|
||||
| **Lite** | $20/mo | AI discovery, business info, hours, services |
|
||||
| **Pro** | $49/mo | Lite + Cal.com booking, rich content (story, photos), deposits |
|
||||
| **Custom** | TBD | White-label, bulk pricing, API access |

## 4-Step Onboarding (15 Minutes Total)
|
||||
|
||||
| Step | What You Do | Time |
|
||||
|------|------------|------|
|
||||
| **1. Sign up** | Create your partner account at partners.geolocal.io | 2 min |
|
||||
| **2. Add client** | Enter their business name and website URL | 3 min |
|
||||
| **3. Deploy** | Download the JSON file, upload to their site (or email it) | 5 min |
|
||||
| **4. Upsell** | Offer Pro tier for booking + rich content | 5 min |
|
||||
|
||||
**That's it.** The MCP endpoint goes live. AI agents can now discover and recommend the business.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Why `geolocal.io` — Not Pie, Mainstreet, or Yelp?
|
||||
|
||||
| | **geolocal.io** | Pie | Mainstreet | Yelp |
|
||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
||||
| **What it is** | MCP infrastructure | Marketing platform | GBP automation | Data landlord |
|
||||
| **MCP endpoint** | ✅ Native | ❌ | Partial | Paid API only |
|
||||
| **Booking from AI** | ✅ Direct | ❌ | ❌ | ❌ |
|
||||
| **Business owns data** | ✅ Independent | Platform-locked | Platform-locked | Platform-locked |
|
||||
| **Partner-friendly** | ✅ 20-30% commission | Reseller model | Direct-to-business | Landlord model |
|
||||
|
||||
**geolocal.io is infrastructure.** Pie and Mainstreet optimize visibility in existing platforms. We **become the data source** that AI agents query directly.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## What Makes This Defensible
|
||||
|
||||
1. **AI muscle memory** — the more AI agents use `geolocal.io` endpoints, the more they learn to prefer them. First movers get locked in.
|
||||
2. **Partner network effects** — once your agency has 20 clients on `geolocal.io`, switching is painful. We make onboarding frictionless.
|
||||
3. **Telemetry data** — every MCP interaction generates proprietary data no one else has. We'll use it to improve recommendations and offer insights.
|
||||
4. **Simplicity** — one JSON file. No competitors offer this level of simplicity for MCP deployment.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Your Next Step
|
||||
|
||||
**Become a partner:** partners.geolocal.io

# Data Flow & Privacy — geolocal.io
|
||||
|
||||
> Last updated: 2026-07-16
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 1. Overview
|
||||
|
||||
This document describes how data flows through the `geolocal.io` platform, what data we collect, how it's stored, who has access, and how we handle privacy obligations under GDPR and CCPA.
|
||||
|
||||
**Core principle:** We expose only public business data. We do not collect personal consumer data beyond what is necessary for booking transactions (handled by Cal.com and Stripe).
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 2. Data Collection Points
|
||||
|
||||
### 2.1 Business Data (Voluntary)
|
||||
|
||||
Businesses (or their agencies) voluntarily provide:
|
||||
|
||||
| Data | Source | Purpose |
|
||||
|------|--------|---------|
|
||||
| Business name, address, phone, website | Business owner / agency | AI discovery |
|
||||
| Operating hours | Business owner / agency | AI recommendations |
|
||||
| Services & pricing | Business owner / agency | AI recommendations |
|
||||
| Story & narrative | Business owner / agency | Differentiation in AI responses |
|
||||
| Photos & video | Business owner / agency | Visual discovery in AI |
|
||||
| Cal.com booking link | Business owner / agency | Transaction loop |
|
||||
|
||||
**Note:** This data is already publicly available on the business's website or Google Business Profile. We do not scrape it without consent.
|
||||
|
||||
### 2.2 Telemetry Data (MCP Interactions)
|
||||
|
||||
Every MCP tool call generates:
|
||||
|
||||
| Data Point | Example |
|
||||
|-----------|---------|
|
||||
| Query terms | "best mechanic in Frisco TX" |
|
||||
| Business slug referenced | "frisco-german-auto" |
|
||||
| Tool called | "get_business_info" |
|
||||
| AI platform used | ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude |
|
||||
| Timestamp | 2026-07-16T14:23:00Z |
|
||||
| Response time | 45ms |
|
||||
|
||||
### 2.3 Booking Data (via Cal.com / Stripe)
|
||||
|
||||
**We do NOT handle this directly.** Cal.com and Stripe are the providers of record. We pass booking requests to their APIs.
|
||||
|
||||
- Cal.com handles: appointment scheduling, calendar data, customer contact info
|
||||
- Stripe handles: payment processing, billing data, financial records
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 3. Data Storage
|
||||
|
||||
| Data Type | Where It Lives | Retention |
|
||||
|-----------|---------------|-----------|
|
||||
| Business profiles | PostgreSQL (Railway) | Until business opts out |
|
||||
| Telemetry logs | PostgreSQL + Redis (cached) | 24 months, then anonymized |
|
||||
| Photos / media | CDN (Cloudflare R2 / AWS S3) | Until business opts out |
|
||||
| Booking data | Cal.com / Stripe (external) | Per their retention policies |
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 4. Data Sharing
|
||||
|
||||
| Recipient | What We Share | Why |
|
||||
|-----------|--------------|-----|
|
||||
| AI agents (ChatGPT, Gemini, etc.) | Business profile data via MCP | Core product function |
|
||||
| Partner agencies | Their client's analytics & commission data | Partner economics |
|
||||
| Chambers of Commerce | Member analytics (aggregate) | CoC dashboard |
|
||||
| Third-party data buyers (DaaS) | Anonymized telemetry only | Data-as-a-Service revenue |
|
||||
|
||||
**We never sell identifiable consumer data.** All DaaS products use aggregated, anonymized telemetry.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 5. Bi-Directional MCP Data Flow
|
||||
|
||||
The "related businesses" handshake creates a bi-directional data exchange:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
AI Agent ──┐
|
||||
├──→ geolocal.io MCP Server ──→ Business Database
|
||||
│ ↓
|
||||
│ related_businesses()
|
||||
│ ↓
|
||||
│ Returns: list of related businesses
|
||||
│ ↓
|
||||
AI Agent ◄─┘───────────────────────────────────┘
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Verification flow:** AI agents can report data discrepancies back through the MCP protocol. We log these reports and flag business profiles for review.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 6. Privacy Commitments
|
||||
|
||||
### 6.1 GDPR Principles
|
||||
- **Lawful basis:** Processing is based on business consent (they opt in) and legitimate interest (telemetry for service improvement)
|
||||
- **Data minimization:** We only collect what's needed for AI discovery and booking
|
||||
- **Right to be forgotten:** Businesses can request full data deletion
|
||||
- **Data portability:** Businesses can export their profile data at any time
|
||||
- **DPIA:** Data Protection Impact Assessment will be completed before EU data processing
|
||||
|
||||
### 6.2 CCPA Principles
|
||||
- **Notice at collection:** Clear disclosure of what data we collect
|
||||
- **Right to delete:** Businesses can request deletion of their data
|
||||
- **Right to opt out of sale:** We do not sell personal data
|
||||
- **Non-discrimination:** We do not discriminate against users who exercise their rights
|
||||
|
||||
### 6.3 What We Do NOT Do
|
||||
- We do not collect consumer PII beyond what Cal.com/Stripe handle
|
||||
- We do not track individual consumers across sessions
|
||||
- We do not use cookies for behavioral tracking
|
||||
- We do not sell individual-level data
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 7. Security
|
||||
|
||||
| Measure | Status |
|
||||
|---------|--------|
|
||||
| PostgreSQL connection via SSL | ✅ MVP |
|
||||
| Rate limiting on MCP endpoints | ✅ MVP |
|
||||
| Input validation (Zod schemas) | ✅ MVP |
|
||||
| OAuth 2.1 with PKCE for partner auth | Phase 2 |
|
||||
| Regular security audits | Phase 3 |
|
||||
| SOC 2 compliance | Future |
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 8. Incident Response
|
||||
|
||||
In the event of a data breach:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Detect:** Automated alerts on anomalous MCP traffic patterns
|
||||
2. **Contain:** Rate-limit or disable affected endpoints
|
||||
3. **Notify:** Affected businesses notified within 72 hours (GDPR)
|
||||
4. **Remediate:** Patch vulnerability, audit for scope
|
||||
5. **Document:** Log incident, update this document

# IP Notes — geolocal.io
|
||||
|
||||
> Last updated: 2026-07-16
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 1. The `/.well-known/mcp-server` Pattern
|
||||
|
||||
### Positioning
|
||||
|
||||
The `/.well-known/mcp-server` convention is an adaptation of IETF's RFC 8615 (`/.well-known` URI space) for MCP server discovery. We position this as an **open standard** — not a proprietary geolocal.io invention.
|
||||
|
||||
**Rationale:**
|
||||
- The more adopters use this convention, the more AI agents learn to look for it
|
||||
- An open standard creates network effects that favor us as the infrastructure provider, even though we don't own the convention
|
||||
- Competitors who copy the convention still need our hosted MCP server
|
||||
|
||||
### Risk
|
||||
|
||||
If another company claims to have "invented" `/.well-known/mcp-server`, we lose the narrative advantage. **Mitigation:** Document our first use and publish the convention publicly before competitors.
|
||||
|
||||
### Action Items
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] Publish a technical blog post: "Introducing `/.well-known/mcp-server` for AI Discovery"
|
||||
- [ ] File a design document on the MCP GitHub repository as a community proposal
|
||||
- [ ] Include the convention in our public README before launch
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 2. Trademark
|
||||
|
||||
**Mark:** geolocal.io
|
||||
|
||||
**Status:** To be registered
|
||||
|
||||
**Action Items:**
|
||||
- [ ] File USPTO trademark application for "GeoLocal" (Class 42: Cloud computing services; Class 35: Business consulting)
|
||||
- [ ] Monitor for conflicting marks in adjacent categories
|
||||
- [ ] Register domain variations (geolocal.com, geolocal.ai) to prevent confusion
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 3. MCP Protocol Usage
|
||||
|
||||
**Governance:** The MCP protocol is governed by Anthropic (as of 2026). It is open-source and permissively licensed.
|
||||
|
||||
**Our usage:**
|
||||
- We implement the MCP protocol as specified — this is permitted
|
||||
- We do not modify the core protocol — we extend it with our own tools and data schema
|
||||
- Our proprietary value is in the **data layer** and **hosting infrastructure**, not the protocol itself
|
||||
|
||||
**Risk:** If MCP governance changes (e.g., becomes copyleft, or a competing protocol emerges), we need to be ready to migrate. Our data layer is protocol-agnostic, so this is manageable.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 4. Telemetry Data Ownership
|
||||
|
||||
**We own the telemetry data** generated by MCP interactions on our platform:
|
||||
|
||||
- Query patterns
|
||||
- Tool usage statistics
|
||||
- Response times
|
||||
- Business recommendation patterns
|
||||
- AI platform usage breakdown
|
||||
|
||||
**We do NOT own:**
|
||||
- Business profile data (owned by the businesses)
|
||||
- Booking data (owned by Cal.com/Stripe)
|
||||
- Consumer PII (we don't collect it)
|
||||
|
||||
**Commercialization:** Anonymized, aggregated telemetry may be licensed as a Data-as-a-Service product. This is subject to our privacy commitments (see Data Flow & Privacy.md).
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 5. Open Source Considerations
|
||||
|
||||
**Current code:** Proprietary (closed-source)
|
||||
|
||||
**Rationale for closed-source:**
|
||||
- The competitive advantage is in the data and distribution, not the code
|
||||
- However, closing the source may slow adoption if agencies want to audit the infrastructure
|
||||
- **Potential strategy:** Release a reference implementation (the JSON manifest generator) as open source, while keeping the MCP server and telemetry pipeline proprietary
|
||||
|
||||
**Recommendation:** Evaluate open-sourcing the manifest generator / `/.well-known/mcp-server` convention documentation as a growth strategy. This positions geolocal.io as the authority without giving away proprietary infrastructure.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 6. Business Data Rights
|
||||
|
||||
**Clear chain of title:**
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Business Owner → (voluntarily provides) → geolocal.io MCP Server → (exposed via) → AI Agents
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- Businesses retain full ownership of their profile data
|
||||
- Businesses grant geolocal.io a non-exclusive license to host and expose that data via MCP
|
||||
- Businesses may revoke this license at any time (data deletion request)
|
||||
- Businesses may export their data at any time
|
||||
|
||||
**Partner agencies:**
|
||||
- Agencies act as data processors on behalf of businesses
|
||||
- Agencies do not own the business data they submit
|
||||
- Businesses must authorize agencies to submit their data on their behalf
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 7. IP Audit Checklist
|
||||
|
||||
Before launch, verify:
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] No third-party code with restrictive licenses (GPL, AGPL) in the MCP server
|
||||
- [ ] All dependencies use permissive licenses (MIT, Apache 2.0, BSD)
|
||||
- [ ] Trademark application filed
|
||||
- [ ] `/.well-known/mcp-server` convention documented and published
|
||||
- [ ] Privacy policy references data ownership clearly
|
||||
- [ ] Terms of Service include IP clauses
|
||||
- [ ] No open source code mixed with proprietary code without clear separation
