FAQ
- What does AI opening share measure?
- AI opening share captures which source AI Overviews reach for first when constructing an answer. It measures the opening-control position — who opens the AI answer — not general citation frequency and not organic search ranking.
- Does this card prove a longer-term trend?
- This observation does not establish a longer-term trend. It aggregates 7 comparable scheduled runs in the window August 31 – September 6, 2026. AI Overview opening behavior is volatile across queries, models, and dates; future windows may produce different panels.
- Why does a social platform lead the opening-control rail on a real estate market?
- AI Overviews select opening sources based on the model's own retrieval logic, not on industry specialization. The observation records what AI chose to open with across 104 queries in this window — it does not reflect business-market standing or operator expertise.
