# Country configuration

> Choose project defaults and understand how each AI platform applies country scope.

Country configuration controls where OpenLens measures your brand's visibility. Saved countries become the project defaults for future manual and scheduled runs.

## Saved countries and one-time overrides

* Change the saved country list in project Settings to update future runs and schedules.
* Use **Set run scope** before a manual run to choose a temporary country list. This does not change the project defaults or its schedule.
* Adding countries repeats the selected prompts across the selected platforms, so the run uses more credits. The run-scope panel shows the maximum credit reservation before you start.

Multiple-country configuration and geographic comparison are available to Agency organizations.

## Country availability

The country picker uses one shared catalog for all AI platforms. Each country identifies the platforms that can target it and any platform that must use its own default location.

Claude and DeepSeek do not currently support configurable country targeting and will use their default location.

When several platforms are selected, a country must be available to every platform that performs country targeting. A provider-default platform does not make the selected country a verified execution location.

## How platforms use the selected country

| Platform                               | Location behavior                                                                                                                                                                                                                           |
| -------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI, Gemini | OpenLens requests the selected country through the consumer-surface routing provider.                                                                                                                                                       |
| Grok                                   | OpenLens passes the country to xAI's web-search tool as `user_location`. xAI describes this as biasing search results toward that location. It is not an in-country proxy and does not verify that Grok executed from the selected country. |
| Claude, DeepSeek                       | These platforms do not currently support configurable country targeting in OpenLens, so they use their default locations.                                                                                                                   |

Grok location hints remain unverified because its API does not return evidence establishing an effective execution country. Claude and DeepSeek also remain unverified because they use their default locations. OpenLens records the requested country for run comparison without presenting it as verified geography.

See [xAI's location parameter documentation](https://docs.x.ai/developers/model-capabilities/audio/voice-agent) and [How OpenLens sources data](/data-sources) for more about API and consumer-surface measurements.
