Fire it up. Then forget about it.
chern is built for owners who are busy running the place. One visit to set it up, a few taps a morning, and a receipt at the end of every month.
We visit and connect
One of us comes by in person. You sign in with Google to connect the Business Profile you already manage, and choose anything else you'd like to add.
- Google Business Profile (required)
- Your website and social pages (optional)
- Your booking or point-of-sale system (optional, for sharper receipts)
chern reads your market
We look at what people around you are searching for, how you appear on Google Search and Maps from different parts of town, and what AI assistants say when someone asks for a business like yours.
- Where you rank, street by street
- How often AI answers mention you, and who they mention instead
- What your reviews, photos and listing say compared with nearby competitors
Three moves a day
Every morning chern ranks every possible improvement by how much it's likely to bring in, how long it takes, and how sure we are. You get the top three, each with a dollar estimate and a plain reason.
Done for you
Most moves are work chern can do on your behalf. You approve each one with a tap, or switch on autopilot for the kinds you trust.
- Replies to Google reviews, written in your voice
- Fixes to hours, services, categories and descriptions
- Google posts and short answer pages for common questions
See the proof
Each change is logged. We compare what happened to you with similar businesses that didn't make the change, so a busy week in town doesn't get mistaken for a win. If a move didn't work, the receipt says so, and chern adjusts what it suggests next.
Do I need to be good with tech?
No. We set everything up with you in person. After that, the app is a short list of moves each morning. If you can reply to a text, you can use chern.
Will chern post anything without my say-so?
Only if you tell it to. Every action starts as a draft you approve. You can turn on autopilot for specific kinds of actions, like thank-you replies to five-star reviews, and switch it off again at any time.
Where do the dollar estimates come from?
From your own numbers where you share them, like average sale and how often customers come back, combined with what we see across similar local businesses. Estimates come with a range, and they get sharper as your receipts come in.
Do you write fake reviews or buy rankings?
Never. chern doesn't create, buy or filter reviews, and it doesn't use tricks that break Google's rules. Everything we do is something a careful owner could do by hand, if they had the time.
What does chern access on my Google account?
Only the Business Profiles you manage and choose to connect. The full details are on our Google integration page.
Can I cancel?
Yes, any time. You can also disconnect Google instantly from inside the app or from your Google account settings.
