FAQ
- What does AI opening share measure?
- AI opening share is an actor's share of the openings recorded for the sources in this ranking. Each daily observation contributes its ranked sources, pooled over the window; the opening excerpt of an AI Overview answer can name several sources. It is not general citation share.
- Does this card prove a longer-term trend?
- No. This observation does not establish a longer-term trend. It covers 7 comparable scheduled runs in the window November 2–8, 2026. AI Overview opening behavior is volatile across queries, models, and dates; future windows may produce different results.
- Why do linkedin.com and youtube.com show the same AI opening share?
- Both actors record 10.09% AI opening share on this market across the 7-run window. They hold distinct governed ranks (#3 and #4) determined by the period-wide tie-break ordering, not by a shared position.
