When someone's planning a night out near you, does your venue come up?
Your customers find venues across more channels than ever — Google Maps, Instagram, TikTok, and increasingly AI assistants like ChatGPT. Most London venues are well-optimised for none of them.
Beacon gives you a clear picture of where you stand across every discovery channel — and a specific plan to improve it.

Six pillars of venue discovery
Beacon scores your venue across every channel your customers use to find a night out.
Google Presence
What does your Google listing tell potential customers — and what does it leave out?
Social Discovery
Are people finding your venue through TikTok and Instagram, or scrolling past it?
Review Reputation
What do your reviews say about you — and are they recent enough to matter?
Search Visibility
When someone Googles bars or clubs in your area, where do you appear?
Website Signals
Does your website help search engines and AI understand what you offer and who you're for?
AI Recommendations
When someone asks ChatGPT or Gemini where to go tonight, does your venue come up?
AI assistants like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity are a small but fast-growing part of how people discover venues — particularly among 18–35 year olds planning group nights out. Right now they influence a minority of booking decisions. In two to three years, industry data suggests they will influence a significant proportion.
The venues that improve their AI visibility now do so at low cost, before it becomes competitive. The ones that wait will spend significantly more to catch up.
Beacon is honest about this. We won't tell you AI search is transforming your footfall today — it isn't. We will tell you it's the fastest-growing discovery channel you almost certainly haven't optimised for, and that the cost of acting early is low.
