The presence of social platforms alongside focused domains at every level of the panel underscores how broadly AI Overviews source their opening answers on this market.

- No. This card observes AI Overview opening-control behavior across 7 comparable scheduled runs from September 21–27, 2026. It does not measure business-market share, transaction volume, or brand strength. AI Overview opening behavior is volatile across queries, models, and dates.
- Why do scmp.com and youtube.com show the same AI opening share but different ranks?
