About

hi ! I'm Fabrice, a French solodev based in Spain. I have a very unique double life : I've been running my own burger restaurant for 3 years, and I'm a software engineer. I recently went through the intense process of getting official Google Business Profile API production access, and managed to get it fully approved in just 35 days as a solo creator. Now, I'm building Localpatron.app, a hyper fast SaaS (Next.js via OpenNext + Cloudflare Workers) designed to help local business and SEO agencies dominate Google Maps Using context-aware AI, 100% Google-compliant, 100% white-hat ! Looking forward to connecting with fellow makers, talking about Edge computing, and preparing our upcoming Launch !

From Head Chef to Solo Founder building LocalPatron 👨‍🍳🚀

Hey Product Hunt!

I m Fabrice. For the past 3 years, I ve been running my own burger restaurant, "La Casa de Burger". Between managing the kitchen, firing up the grill, and handling staff, I spent every night fighting the exact same battle: Local SEO and Google Business Profile management.

Most tools out there are built for agencies, not real-world operators. They dump complex spreadsheets on you instead of providing clear, automated actions to actually rank on Google Maps.

So, I built LocalPatron: an all-in-one AI suite engineered to automate local content generation, review management, and local rankings for multi-location brands and independent stores.

From Burger Joint Head Chef to Building LocalPatron: Why Google Maps SEO Is Broken

Hey everyone!

For the past 3 years, I ve been running my own burger restaurant, "La Casa de Burger". Between managing the kitchen, firing up the grill, and handling staff, I spent every single night fighting the same exhausting battle: Local SEO and Google Business Profile management.

Most local SEO tools are built for digital agencies, not real-world operators. They dump overwhelming spreadsheets on you instead of providing clear, actionable steps to actually rank higher on Google Maps.

So, I decided to build LocalPatron an all-in-one AI suite engineered specifically to automate Google Maps SEO, local content generation, and review management for multi-location brands and local businesses.

🛬How do you onboard new users?

I m curious how other makers approach this.

The more features a product has, the harder it becomes to explain it without overwhelming a new user.

Do you:

guide users step by step
give them a simple starting task
let them explore everything themselves
use videos/tutorials
hide most features until they need them
or something completely different?
