Are you in the AI summary above the search results?
Google now shows an AI summary before the results list on many searches. Users rarely scroll past it; a brand missing from that summary does not even get the click. We measure that summary.
AI Overviews changed the rules of SEO: even if you rank first, you are invisible when the summary does not mention you. And the summary can feed on different sources than the classic ranking. That is why classic rank tracking and AI summary tracking are separate jobs.
This page focuses on Google AI Overviews; to watch your brand across all engines, see our AI rank tracker that watches every engine in one panel.
Why is AI Overviews tracking urgent?
This is the highest-volume surface: Google search is still everyone's first stop.
The zero-click era
The summary answers the question on the page; users decide before visiting any site. You must be named where the decision happens.
Your SEO rank will not save you
Ranking first organically while never being mentioned in the summary is possible — and vice versa. Measuring only one means investing in the wrong place.
Spreading across languages
AI Overviews appears on more and more non-English queries; whoever measures early takes position before competitors wake up.

What is inside AI Overviews tracking?
With real search data: did the summary appear, is your brand in it, who are the sources?
Summary visibility
Does an AI summary appear for your questions, and is your brand mentioned in it? Marked per question.
Summary sources
Which pages did Google build the summary from? Domains are listed; your target content list writes itself.
Rank and trend
Your mention position inside the summary and its weekly change are charted; you see the drop the week it happens.
Competitor comparison
How many times did competitors enter the summary on the same questions? Compared fairly, on brand-free questions.
Competitor comparison
How visible are competitors on the same questions? We compare on brand-free questions only, so nobody gets inflated by their own branded queries.
Source analysis
Which sites did the engine read before answering? We rank the most cited domains, so your content and PR targets become concrete.
How we count is public: our methodology page explains every metric and its limits. With little data we show a confidence band instead of a score; we do not sell fake precision.
Common questions about Google AI Overviews tracking
What is Google AI Overviews?
The AI summary Google shows at the top of some searches, compiled from multiple sources. It comes before the results list, and a large share of users read only this summary.
How do you measure AI Overviews?
We run your questions through real Google searches on a schedule; when a summary appears we record the brands and source pages inside it. Results live in the panel per question and as a score.
The summary does not appear on every search — what happens to the score?
Runs where no summary appeared are counted separately; your score uses only the runs where a summary existed. With little data we show a confidence band instead of a hard score.
What should I do to be mentioned in AI Overviews?
Look at the page types the summary cites: pages that answer the question directly and in a structured way lead. The panel gives you the source list; build your content plan against it.
Is there a free AI Overview checker?
Yes: the free test on our homepage checks your brand across engines including Google AI Overviews, no card required. What separates it from one-shot 'checker' tools is repetition — the same question is asked on a schedule, so you see the trend. A summary that shows today can vanish tomorrow, which makes a single look misleading.
How do I monitor my AI Overviews performance?
Two layers matter: does the summary appear for your queries at all, and when it does, is your brand inside it? The panel tracks both per question — trigger rate, mention rate and rank history on one chart. Search Console covers the click side; reading the two together gives you the full picture.
