FAQ
- What does AI citation share on this market measure?
- It measures how often an actor's domain appears as a cited source inside AI Overview answers across the governed market panel. It does not measure who opens AI answers, nor does it reflect organic search ranking.
- Does this card prove a longer-term trend in AI citation behavior?
- No. This card observes 7 comparable scheduled runs in an observation period from October 26 – November 1, 2026. AI Overview content varies by query, model, and date; this observation does not establish a multi-month or directional trend.
- Why are social platforms so prominent on this panel?
- The card observes which domains AI Overviews cite — it does not explain why. The governed top-5 panel shows that social platforms accumulated the highest citation volume over the period. The card does not claim this reflects organic ranking or business-market position.
