About

Who Maps Agent is

Maps Agent is 6 specialist AI roles that run a local business’s Google Maps presence, with human researchers above them who build the methods and check the work. It starts with a free audit that scores your profile on 28 checks in 5 categories.

How did Maps Agent start?

It started as an audit, and the audit is still free and still the first thing anyone gets. Maps Agent reads a Google Business Profile the way the team would on day one, scores it, and lists what is missing in the order it matters.

An audit tells an owner what is missing. It does not fix any of it. The tools in this field stop at the report and hand the work back, and an agency that would do the work costs more per month than a single location can justify.

So the second half of Maps Agent is the part that does the work: a roster of specialist AI roles that publish, describe and track the profile every month, with people above them instead of a dashboard handed to the owner. That is the whole company. Everything else on this site is a detail of those two halves.

Who does the work?

These 6 roles are the team. Each one has a job on your profile and a line in your report, and the full description of every role lives on the roster page.

The Researcher
Studies your business before anything is written: your site, your services, the area you actually serve.
The Keyword Analyst
Builds the list of searches that actually bring you customers, including the questions people now ask AI assistants out loud.
The Writers
Load your services and products with the keywords that rank, and write the posts, the profile description and the Q&A.
The AI Editor
Checks what the writers produce against the facts of your real business, and against two dozen categories of risky claims.
The Designer
Creates the images that go out with your content, matched to your trade and your city, based on who actually lives and buys there.
The Analyst
Tracks where you actually rank across the map grid around your business, and who is above you.

Who are the people above the machine?

The roster is autonomous, not unattended. Researchers set what the agents are asked to do, read what comes back, and hold the work to a standard the agents cannot check for themselves. Whether a claim is true. Whether a post is worth publishing at all.

They work on the agents, not on you, and they will never call you. There is no phone field anywhere on this site, and the reasons for that and three other refusals are set out on what Maps Agent refuses to do.

Why does any of this work matter?

“Businesses with complete and accurate info are more likely to show up in local search results.”

Complete and accurate is not a one-time state. Services change, hours change, the questions people ask change, and the profile that answered them last year answers fewer of them now. Keeping it current is a standing job on top of a business that is already busy, and that job is what Maps Agent takes over.

Who built Maps Agent?

Sergey Sulimko built it and still decides what ships. One person deciding is also why this site can say what is missing: there is no committee whose job is to make the company look further along than it is. Three places on this site show that in practice.

  • The case studies page is empty, and it says so. It fills up when a paying customer has numbers we are allowed to show, and not before.
  • The principles page names what has not been built yet, next to the promises it does make.
  • The one measurement below carries its sample size, its method and the engine it could not measure at all.

The buyer question, on its own

300 of the answers came from questions a buyer asks without naming anyone. Maps Agent was named in 1.3% of them (0.5% to 3.4%). That is the number this company is trying to move, and it is published here at its real size.

The control

control bucket named 12 of 12. A sweep that finds nothing is worth reading only once it has proved it can find something, so the control runs first and its result is published beside the rest.

  • One run. The answers came back over the days ending 2026-08-20; an engine's behaviour on another week is not described here.
  • English only, and one set of accounts. Nothing here describes another language or a signed-out reader.
  • Gemini publishes no cited sources, so its citation rate is UNMEASURED , never zero.
  • 31 questions is a floor for a market that asks thousands; a rate measured over them is a floor too.
  • `named` is the literal string 'Maps Agent' in the answer's prose and `cited` is our domain in the answer's sources. Being read is neither.

What has Maps Agent not done yet?

No customer whose numbers we can show

There is not one case study on this site. A before and after belongs to a real customer who agreed to publish it, and until that exists the page stays empty rather than filling up with plausible screenshots.

No account screen, so cancelling is an email

Billing is monthly and you leave by writing to us. We would rather print that sentence than a cancel button that does not exist. The same is true of checkout: the sale closes with a plan for your first month and an invoice, not a card form on this site.

No address on the door

Maps Agent works remotely and prints no postal address, here or in its markup, because it has none of its own. A company that writes profiles for a living should be the last one to publish a location it does not occupy.

Questions people ask about the company

What is Maps Agent?
Maps Agent is an AI marketing team for Google Maps. Specialist AI roles study a local business, build its keyword list, write and publish its profile content, and track where it ranks. Human researchers build those roles and check their work. The way in is a free audit of your profile.
Who runs Maps Agent?
Sergey Sulimko founded it and still decides what ships. The specialist roles that work on a profile are AI agents, not staff. The people are researchers who study the ranking systems and the AI answer surfaces and improve the methods the team works by. They work on the agents, not on you.
Where is Maps Agent based?
Maps Agent works remotely and serves businesses in the United States. There is no office to visit and no postal address printed on this site, because printing one we do not have would be the first false thing on the page. Everything happens by email and on your profile.
Has Maps Agent published customer results?
No. There is not one customer case study on this site, and the case studies page says exactly that instead of showing invented numbers. The one measurement published here is how often AI assistants name Maps Agent, and it ships with its sample size, its method and its limits.
Does a real person ever work on my profile?
On the AI tiers, the work on your profile is done by AI roles and the people sit above them, building and checking the methods. On the Partner tier a human team directs and verifies everything the team ships and meets you on a call first. The split is stated rather than blurred.
How do I try Maps Agent without paying?
