I'm curious about Merchynt's Paige AI. Has anyone here used it? If so, what was your experience? Did it meet your expectations, and would you recommend it? I'd appreciate hearing any insights or opinions from those who've tried it!

Thank you!
 
Yes we've used it and it's mostly brilliant for optimising GBP's, plus does all the reporting to clients for you - there have been some bugs and the pricing unfortunately doesn't work for our market.

Amazing tool but if there was a set monthly price for unlimited accounts it would be a lot more of an attractive offer.

How do they charge you? BY location? And how much? I have been asked to look into it but so far not impressed when first thing they mentioned was geo tagging photos . LOL

Yeah it's $99/ location, we were using the service as it's a complete time saver and does get results but it's super buggy, worst of all with billing. We attempted to cancel several of our gbp's that was connected but it wouldn't go through so we just kept getting charged - still waiting to hear back from support. We're probs gonna have to get the bank to stop their charges at this point even though we do wanna keep using for some gbp's - it's just once you've signed a gbp up you can't cancel it right now and support have ghosted us so we're out of options.

How many locations do you have? Also I have a big concern of something getting suspended. Do they alert you for those type of issues ?

Hi @petercanthropus, I'm Justin - the founder of Merchynt. I just stumbled upon your past randomly and would be happy to have a chat. We definitely went through out buggier phase during the earlier beta days, but have had a much more stable platform in the past ~90 days and plan on keeping it that way. With all new software, there are bound to be bugs at the start.

It appears that they offer services that don't impact rankings. Google posts are not a ranking factor and Google strips geotagging from photos.

Paige does a whole lot more than just publish posts. All features are now listed on the site for Paige under the pricing. Our data scientist reviews our millions of data points monthly and you're right that posts alone won't move the needle, but it's definitely a (small) factor. For example, we just added video creation/publishing, which has a might stronger correlation with rankings.

Thanks for this feedback! Glad you liked to GBP optimization features! Feel free to email me the concerns you had around pricing. Justin@merchynt.com

I'm so sorry to hear you had this issue! You should have been able to cancel by going to Settings -> Billing -> Cancel. If you weren't able to get this resolved yet, please email me ASAP at Justin@merchynt.com with the details so I can immediately resolve it for you. I don't like messing around with other people's money so will get this sorted ASAP!

Did you continue through it? The geotagging bit is just a tiny part of Paige. We do it since (1) we can and (2) I'd rather go the extra mile than be lazy and not if it's a potential ranking factor.

Very best,
Justin (Founder of Merchynt)
