Key reading

Luxury Yachting Thailand · Phuket / Koh Samui · AI Overview · September 7–13, 2026

YachtCharterFleet holds the rank-1 position on the AI Overview opening-control rail for Luxury Yachting Thailand by cumulative opening volume over the 7-run window, but at 19.82% its lead is narrow rather than commanding. asiaglobalyachting.com sits 7.43 percentage points behind YachtCharterFleet on AI opening share on this market, and the top 3 actors together hold more than the remaining 7 combined. Below the top three, the panel compresses: the 9 sources behind YachtCharterFleet range from 12.39% down to 4.42%. The surface is active and competitive — no actor has captured it decisively across the observed period.

Pattern on the observed surface

Luxury Yachting Thailand · Phuket / Koh Samui · AI Overview · September 7–13, 2026

The panel is top-heavy but not monopolized

The panel is top-heavy but not monopolized. The top 3 actors together hold more than the remaining 7 combined, yet the rank-1 share sits below a fifth of all observed openings. Two general-purpose platforms — facebook.com and youtube.com — appear alongside eight focused sources, giving the surface a specialist-heavy composition with a thin platform layer at the lower ranks. The spread from rank 1 to rank 10 is 15.40 percentage points. 9 of the 10 actors on the panel opened AI answers in all 7 comparable runs; 1 opened AI answers in fewer runs — the surface drew from a broad and recurring set of sources across the window.

Why this reading matters

Luxury Yachting Thailand · Phuket / Koh Samui · AI Overview · September 7–13, 2026

YachtCharterFleet holds the rank-1 position on this AI Overview opening-control rail, yet its 19.82% share means the surface distributes the remaining openings across nine other sources. The competitive structure is active: no actor has captured the AI opening layer on this market across the 7-run window, and the gap between the top three and the trailing seven is narrow enough that the hierarchy could shift in a future observation window.

Market implication

Luxury Yachting Thailand · Phuket / Koh Samui · AI Overview · September 7–13, 2026

The AI Overview opening-control surface for Luxury Yachting Thailand is active and competitive across the observed period. No actor has captured it — the rank-1 share is below a fifth of observed openings, and the top 3 actors together hold more than the remaining 7 combined without any single source locking the primacy slot. For any actor monitoring AI opening-control visibility on this market, the observation signals a contested surface where cumulative opening volume is distributed rather than concentrated behind one source.

FAQ

What does AI opening share measure?
AI opening share captures which source AI Overviews reach for first when answering a query — the opening slot of the AI-generated answer. It is not the same as general citation share (which counts all citations across the full AI answer) or organic search ranking.
How was this panel aggregated across the 7-run window?
Each actor's raw AI answer openings were summed across all 7 comparable scheduled runs in the window September 7–13, 2026. Each actor's share is its total openings divided by one single period-wide denominator. The panel is ranked by cumulative opening volume, not by an average of daily values.
Does this card establish a longer-term trend?
No. This observation covers a 7-run window and does not establish a longer-term trend. AI Overview opening behavior is volatile across queries, models, and dates; future windows may produce different results.
