For Kitchen & Bath Remodelers

They research for
four months. You meet
them at week sixteen.

A homeowner planning a kitchen spends three to six months reading before they contact a single contractor. Right now that entire window belongs to a national cost-guide site — and to the remodeler who publishes.

01The problem

You quote the job. Someone else framed the budget.

By the time a homeowner calls you, they’ve read for months and already decided what this should cost. You’re negotiating against a number you had no part in setting.

$250–450
Per kitchen or bath lead.
And $150–600+ from a lead vendor, often shared with three other contractors. Every wasted lead comes straight off the job margin.

Illustrative scenario

A Thursday at Summit Kitchen & Bath.

The four months you never see — and what changes when you do.

1
Thursday · Marco, owner

A homeowner walks the job and says “I was expecting around $38,000.” The real number is $62,000. Marco spends twenty minutes explaining why — the same twenty minutes he spends on every quote.

20 min per quoteTrust deficit from minute one

The gap

That $38,000 came from a national cost-guide site with no idea what cabinetry costs in Denver. Marco has a beautiful portfolio and not one page explaining what a remodel actually costs here.

Monday · ScoutRival, day one

The scan scores him 31/100 and shows why: Alpine Design Build is cited for six money prompts, his gallery-heavy site takes nine seconds to load, and nothing on it answers a research-phase question. Action #1 is drafted.

BlogCraft cost content

BlogCraft writes the long-form cost and materials guides homeowners actually search — “what a kitchen remodel costs in {city},” “quartz vs granite,” “how long a bath remodel takes” — structured so AI engines quote them, and published to your WordPress as a draft.

Three ways to solve this. One fits a remodeler.

An agency, a stack of tools, or one seat. The honest comparison — including the two things we don’t do.

Option A

Marketing agency

$2,500–7,500 / month
  • Rarely measures AI visibility
  • Competitor watch not in scope
  • Direction on a monthly call
  • Writes content — in 2–4 weeks
  • Manages reviews and posting
  • You own the content — check the contract
Real expertise, real cost. You wait on someone else’s calendar, and the knowledge leaves when they do.
Option B

Four separate tools

~$180–290 / month
  • Tracks AI visibility
  • Listening is enterprise-priced
  • You interpret all of the data
  • Generic content unless you prompt well
  • Four logins, none share context
  • You own everything you make
Cheaper than an agency — but you become the integration layer, and that’s the job you didn’t want.
Built for a business like yours Option C

ScoutRival

One seat · see pricing →
  • Two engines, labelled — re-check any day
  • Nine channels + founder-level tracking
  • A daily brief with one clear action
  • Content in your voice, drafted in ~90 seconds
  • Branded graphics + one-click WordPress
  • Yours forever — export anytime
  • Doesn’t manage your Google Business Profile or map-pack rank
  • Doesn’t auto-post — you paste and publish
The last two are deliberate. We’d rather you knew now than found out in month two — everything else is in one seat.

Some remodeling enquiries do come through the local pack, and we don’t touch it. Saying so up front means nobody buys expecting map-pack help and churns in month two — the single most common mis-sale in the trades.

09FAQ

Everything owners ask before they start.

What exactly do I get on day one?
A measured AI-visibility score across ChatGPT and Gemini, the exact cost and materials questions where a rival is named instead of you, a 31-point audit of what’s slowing your portfolio site, and your first cost guide drafted and ready to approve. Setup is your company name and website — about five minutes.
Does this actually work for a trade like remodeling?
Better than for most, because the buying cycle is three to six months of reading. That’s the longest research window of any trade, which means content has time to compound and be found. Verticals with a same-day emergency decision get far less from this than you will.
Which AI engines do you check, and how?
Two, and we label which is which. ChatGPT runs web-grounded, so it cites live sources and we show you those citations. Gemini runs as a memory probe — what the model already believes about your market, without citations. They’re deliberately different signals, and reading them together tells you more than a single number would.
Is the score something I can trust and act on?
Yes — because we show you the working. You get a weighted 0–100 score with a confidence band, share of voice against the competitors you actually have, and the receipts behind every answer. AI answers shift between runs, so we show the band rather than a false-precision ranking — and you can re-check any day to watch it move.
I already pay an agency. Does this replace them?
It can, and plenty of owners use it that way. But the sharper move is to ask your agency what your AI-visibility score is. If they have an answer, keep them — you have a good agency. If they don’t, you’ve found the gap, and one seat gives you an independent instrument to measure their work every month for a fraction of the retainer.
What does one seat actually include?
AI-visibility tracking across both engines, nine-channel competitor monitoring with founder-level LinkedIn, the daily brief, content generation in your voice, branded graphics from a 330-design library, long-form articles with one-click WordPress publishing, a 31-point site audit, and Google Search Console plus Bing traffic. On Pro and Agency you can connect your own AI key and generate at zero credit cost. [See the full comparison →](/pricing)
How soon will I show up in AI?
Honestly: it compounds, and nobody can promise a date. Publishing the content that answers your buyers’ questions is what earns citations over the following weeks. What you get on day one is the measurement — exactly which prompts you’re missing and the actions most likely to change it. Anyone promising an overnight “#1 in ChatGPT” is guessing.
What if it isn’t right for us?
Start free — no card, and the scan costs nothing. Paid plans carry a 14-day money-back guarantee, you can cancel anytime with no lock-in, and everything you generate exports as HTML, Markdown, PDF or plain text. What you create is yours whether you stay or not. Two things we deliberately don’t do: manage your Google Business Profile, and auto-post to social. If map-pack ranking is your only gap, we’ll tell you a different tool is the better spend.
