Somebody in your county is asking their phone who delivers propane.
It gave them one name. Here’s what it said.
“who delivers propane near me”

Example only. Your county has a real answer, with real names in it.
The call still comes. It just goes through a different door.
Ten years back, that homeowner got a page of ten links and picked one. Today she asks her phone and gets one name. The phone picks.
You know the call she’s about to make. New owner, house she just bought, a tank in the side yard. No placard on the dome, or one nobody can read anymore. Maybe the last dealer sold out. She needs somebody who runs a truck near her, and she has no idea who that is.
That call has always come. Nothing about your trucks or your service changed. What changed is who hands her the name.
Then — ten links. She picks.
Now — one answer. It picks.
Every engine works this way now. We stay out of which one is better.
We ran it on ourselves first.
This is a real result, not a mockup. We pointed our own free tool at our own company — Tank Spotter, in Chester County, Pennsylvania — and we published whatever came back.
It found 3 fixes. It also named the companies AI is putting in front of our neighbors right now, in our place. We left that in.
We showed you ours. Go see yours.

Company name and ZIP is all it takes. Website and email are optional. You see the results either way.

Frequently asked questions
A01Is it really free, and what do you want from me?
It’s free. Company and ZIP are all it takes to see your results — website and email are optional. No email required to see what we found. About 60 seconds, no call required.
A02What does this actually check?
Seven entity signals on your own website: whether you have Organization schema, LocalBusiness schema, a declared service area, a GeoCircle at your delivery radius, a sameAs profile network, a name-address-phone that matches your canonical listing, and whether AI crawlers are allowed to read you at all. For every signal you’re missing, you get the exact code to paste — not a suggestion to "improve your SEO."
A03Do you check ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, and Copilot separately?
No, and we won’t pretend otherwise. Our engine labels share one web-search reading — five labels are not five independent measurements. Every figure we show says so, in the same view as the number. AI visibility figures are a representative sample via web search, not a direct measurement. Engine labels share one web-search reading.
A04Will this rank me against other propane companies?
No numeric ranking and no market-share figure — there’s no leaderboard table. We do tell you which specific companies AI is naming for propane questions in your county today (the same kind of finding you saw in the real result above), so you know who you’re up against — but we never assign you or them a rank number or a percentage. The report is about your own site’s signals and what to fix on them.
A05Do I get a score or a grade?
No grade. You get a list of what AI can read on your site, what it can’t, and the fixes that close each gap. A number on its own doesn’t tell you what to do Monday morning.
A06Do I need a website person to fix any of this?
Most of the fixes are a block of code pasted into your site’s <head>. We hand you the block, already filled in with your details. If your site is locked down or built on a platform you don’t control, forward the block to whoever runs it. It’s a copy-paste, not a rebuild.
A07What about my service area? I don’t deliver everywhere.
That’s the point of the GeoCircle signal. It tells AI the real radius you run from your bulk plant — commonly 30 to 35 miles — instead of leaving it to guess. Declare the area you actually serve, not the one you wish you served; over-claiming costs you quotes you can’t fill.
