Kerbrank is a flat fee, paid monthly or yearly. There are no credits and no per-scan charges, and weekly scans are included on every plan, so you never have to ration them.
The plans
Plans differ by how many businesses you can track, how many searches each one can have, how large the map can be, and whose name goes on the reports.
| Plan | Monthly | Yearly | Businesses | Searches each | Largest map | Own brand |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Solo | £29 | £290 | 1 | 10 | 11 × 11 | No |
| Pro | £59 | £590 | 3 | 25 | 13 × 13 | Yes |
| Agency | £129 | £1,290 | 10 | 50 | 15 × 15 | Yes |
| Agency+ | £259 | £2,590 | 25 | 100 | 15 × 15 | Yes |
Paying yearly costs ten months' price for twelve, so two months are free.
Every plan includes weekly automatic scans, the map designer, the ChatGPT check, search demand, the competitor comparison, and a shareable report link and PDF. The full comparison is on the pricing page.
A business here means one address with its own map. A plumber with two vans and one address is one business. A salon group with three shops is three.
The free trial
Every account starts with a 14-day free trial, and you don't need a card to start. The trial runs on the Solo plan: one business at a time, 10 searches and maps up to 11 × 11.
You can swap the business for a different one once. Scans, reports and weekly readings all work as normal. A note on your dashboard shows how many days are left, and so does your Account page.
When the trial ends
Nothing is deleted. Your reports and history are kept. What stops is scanning: no weekly scans and no Scan now until you choose a plan. The dashboard says your trial has ended, with a link to see the plans. Once you pick one, scanning starts again and your history carries on where it left off.
Adding a business
- On your list of businesses, press Add a business.
- Follow the three steps: find the business, choose searches, pick the area.
- Press Create and scan.
Getting started walks through each step. When your plan is full, the list says so, and the button takes you to the plans so you can choose a bigger one.
On the Agency and Agency+ plans, you can also press Add client to group businesses under a client name for reporting.
The duplicate check
You can't add the same business twice by accident. When you search for it in the first step, a business you already track is marked Already tracked, with an Open its report link.
If you try to create it anyway, Kerbrank stops you and opens the one you already have. Tracking it twice would only pay for the same answer twice.
Deleting a business
On your list of businesses, press ⋯ on the business's card and choose Delete business. You can also open the business, go to its Settings, and press Delete this business in the section headed Remove this business.
You'll be asked to confirm, and the confirmation says exactly what goes, including how many readings. Deleting removes the business, its searches, all its scans and history, and its report link, which stops working for anyone you've shared it with.
Other businesses aren't affected. It can't be undone, so download a PDF first if you want a record (see sharing reports).
On multi-business plans, deleting a client also deletes every business under it.
Scans
Automatic weekly scans
Every business is scanned automatically every 7 days. Your list of businesses shows the date of each one's last reading, and each business shows the date of its next automatic scan. You don't need to do anything.
Scan now
To take a reading straight away, open the business and press Scan now. How long it takes depends on your map, your searches and how busy Google’s queue is: the app shows its estimate before it starts, and a progress bar shows how far along it is.
Your plan has one Scan now a month for each business it covers, shared across your account: 1 on Solo, 3 on Pro, 10 on Agency and 25 on Agency+, and 1 during the free trial. One that fails or is cut short doesn't count, and they come back on your billing date each month.
A business with a very big map uses more than one, and the line under the button says so. Your Account page shows how many are left. Only one scan can run per business at a time, so the button shows "Scanning…" until it finishes.
It's worth using Scan now after you've changed your searches or your map area, when you want the new set measured straight away. Otherwise, the weekly scan does the work. There's also a daily safety limit, so a stuck button can't use up your month.
Changing what's measured
Changing your searches (Settings, then Change the searches) or your area (Settings, then Change the area) doesn't cost you any history.
Earlier scans are kept and the next scan measures the new settings. The report won't compare the two readings, though, because they measured different things. Choosing which searches to track has advice on settling your list early.
Paying, changing plan and cancelling
Card payments go through Stripe. Kerbrank never sees your card details.
Your Account page shows your plan, what it costs and the date it next renews. Its Plan and billing tab is where you change plan, switch between monthly and yearly, update your card, download invoices or cancel. Within 30 days of your first payment you can ask there for the part you haven't used, with no reason needed.
Your payment covers 5 readings a month for each business you track (4 weekly readings and 1 Scan now), or 64 for a year, and the share not yet used comes back as a percentage. A reading that fails or is cut short never counts against you.
On a yearly plan, Stripe's card fee for that payment is taken off. The Refunds box shows the exact figure, and Ask for my refund sends it to us. If a renewal goes through that you didn't mean to keep and no reading has run since, ask within 7 days and you get all of it back.
After that, if something went wrong on our side, you can ask for a refund there too. When you change plan, Stripe works out the part-period and shows you the amount before anything is charged.
If you cancel, your plan keeps running until the end of the period you have already paid for, and you are not charged again. Your Account page says so, with the date it stops.
You can restart it from Plan and billing before then. After that date, scanning stops, but your reports and history are kept, just as when a trial ends.
If a payment fails, scanning pauses and your dashboard tells you how to put it right. Nothing is deleted.
Closing your account
Go to Account, open the Account tab and press Close account, then confirm with your password (or, if you sign in with Google, your email address).
Closing cancels any paid plan straight away, and the rest of the month or year you have paid for is not refunded. If you're within 30 days of your first payment, ask for the unused part back under Refunds before you close. Scans stop, you're signed out, and we email you the date everything will be deleted: 14 days later.
Until then your businesses, readings and report links are kept, so if you change your mind, sign in and press Keep my account. After that date everything is deleted for good, and shared report links stop working. Billing records stay with Stripe, because the law requires them to be kept.
Your data
Kerbrank uses no tracking cookies, and the public pages count visits without cookies. Connecting Google is optional: we read from Google (Search Console and, if you connect them, your Business Profile and Google Analytics), and you can disconnect at any time.
We never change your Business Profile on our own. Posts go out only when you press Publish or schedule them. Linking your Business Profile explains how to choose the profile for each business.
