Pattern on the observed surface
Luxury Hospitality · Paris · AI Overview · Aug 31 – Sep 6, 2026
The panel is top-heavy
The panel is top-heavy: the top 3 actors together hold more than the remaining 7 combined, and the spread between the rank-1 and rank-10 positions is 24.23 percentage points. Three social platforms — instagram.com, facebook.com, and youtube.com — occupy positions alongside focused domains and niche sources, giving the opening-control surface a mixed composition of general-purpose platforms and specialist or niche domains. Presence splits evenly: 5 of the 10 actors on the panel opened AI answers in all 7 comparable runs, while 5 opened AI answers in fewer runs. The 9 sources behind atout-france.fr range from 12.69% down to 2.31%, but the gap between the second and fourth positions is narrow, creating a contested mid-tier beneath a clear rank-1 position.
Why this reading matters
Luxury Hospitality · Paris · AI Overview · Aug 31 – Sep 6, 2026
atout-france.fr's rank-1 position on this AI opening-control rail is notable because the domain is not classified as a hospitality operator on this panel — it sits at the top of a surface where social platforms and niche domains compete for the same primacy slot. The opening-control rail for Luxury Hospitality Paris, across this 7-run window, is shaped by source-type diversity rather than by any single category of actor.
Market implication
Luxury Hospitality · Paris · AI Overview · Aug 31 – Sep 6, 2026
This observation signals that the AI opening-control surface for Luxury Hospitality Paris is concentrated at the top but structurally open beneath it. The spread between rank 1 and rank 10 is 24.23 percentage points, and cumulative opening volume is unevenly distributed across the panel. For any operator monitoring AI primacy on this market, the mix of social platforms and focused domains on the same rail reframes the competitive set: the actors AI reaches for first on this surface are not drawn from a single category.

FAQ
- What does AI opening share measure?

- How were the values in this card calculated?
- Per-actor values reflect the sum of each actor's AI answer openings across all 7 comparable scheduled runs in the observation period (August 31 – September 6, 2026), divided by one single period-wide denominator. The panel is ranked by cumulative opening volume over the period. AI Overview opening-control evidence was available on 7 of 7 runs in this window.
- Does this card prove a longer-term trend or measure general citation share?
- No. This card observes a 7-run window on the AI Overview opening-control rail. It does not establish a longer-term trend.
