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 market's observed query set. It does not measure who opens those AI answers, nor does it reflect organic search ranking.
- Does this card prove a longer-term trend in AI citation behavior?
- No. This card aggregates observations across 6 comparable scheduled runs in an observation period from June 22–28, 2026. AI Overview content varies by query, model, and date. The period observation widens the evidence base but does not establish a multi-month trajectory.
- Why are there no specialist fashion operators on the panel?
- The panel reflects the top-5 actors by cumulative AI citation volume observed across 105 queries over the 6-run window. The governed ranking shows that general-purpose platforms and one focused source accumulated the highest citation counts. The card does not explain why specialist operators are absent — it observes that they are.
