Which places does it cover?	“200+ direct integrations”: “your changes instantly sync to Google, Apple Maps, Yelp, Facebook, and more.”	Runner checks your Google listing and your connected Facebook Page, plus your Kakao Map and Naver listings for a location in Korea, every day. One press opens Google, Facebook, Kakao Map, Naver, Yelp, Apple Maps or Bing with each of your values ready to copy.
How do I know when a listing is wrong?	Its Listings Verifier “checks live publisher data against your Knowledge Graph” “to automatically detect and resolve errors, duplicates, and publisher overwrites”.	Runner checks your Google listing and your connected Facebook Page, plus your Kakao Map and Naver listings for a location in Korea, against your facts every day, and tells you when one differs.

How does a fix get there?	“Every fix pushes live across all 200+ publishers automatically, no manual work required.”	One press opens Google, Facebook, Kakao Map, Naver, Yelp, Apple Maps or Bing with each of your values ready to copy, and you paste them in.
What about holiday hours?	“You can even schedule seasonal hours or promotions in advance”, and its Scout app lets you “Update holiday hours, business descriptions, and photos directly from your phone.”	Set holiday hours once, for Seollal, Chuseok, Christmas, Thanksgiving and more, in Korea and the US. Runner reminds you three weeks before each holiday. Ask your growth team to draft the holiday post, the Google post and an email to customers who opted in. Each waits for your approval.
I have more than one location.	“Update 10,000+ locations across languages and regions instantly.”	Run many locations? Set holiday or opening hours for all of them, or just some, in one go.
What else comes with it?	Reviews, Social, Pages, Search and Email are Yext products of their own, in its platform list.
