Key reading
Luxury Yacht Charter St. Barthélemy · Saint Barthelemy · AI Overview · August 17–23, 2026
IYC holds the strongest AI opening share on this market in this card scope, at 20.64%, accumulated across the 7-run window August 17–23, 2026. facebook.com sits 6.21 percentage points behind IYC on AI opening share on this market, recording 14.43% — a social platform occupying the second position on a surface otherwise populated by focused sources and niche domains. The Saint-Barthélemy yacht charter visibility surface is distributed across the governed top-10 panel, with no single actor locking down established authority on the AI opening-control rail over the observed period. The top 3 actors together hold more than the remaining 7 combined, yet the gap between the rank-1 and rank-10 positions spans 16.61 percentage points — wide enough to signal that the opening rail is top-loaded but not monopolized.

The opening-control rail for Luxury Yacht Charter St
The opening-control rail for Luxury Yacht Charter St. Barthélemy is top-loaded but not concentrated around a single source. The top 3 actors together hold more than the remaining 7 combined, yet the 9 sources behind IYC range from 14.43% down to 4.03% — a spread that reveals a graduated descent rather than a sharp cliff. A social platform (facebook.com) sits at rank 2, breaking the otherwise niche-domain composition of the panel. 7 of the 10 actors on the panel opened AI answers in all 7 comparable runs; 3 opened AI answers in fewer runs.
Why this reading matters
Luxury Yacht Charter St. Barthélemy · Saint Barthelemy · AI Overview · August 17–23, 2026
IYC accumulated the highest AI opening share on this surface across the 7-run window, yet its 20.64% share means AI Overviews reached for other sources to open answers the majority of the time. The presence of facebook.com at rank 2 — a general-purpose platform on a specialist-market rail — signals that AI answer construction for St. Barthélemy yacht charter queries draws on user-generated and discussion content alongside dedicated niche domains.
Market implication
Luxury Yacht Charter St. Barthélemy · Saint Barthelemy · AI Overview · August 17–23, 2026
The Saint-Barthélemy yacht charter AI opening-control surface is distributed across the governed top-10 panel, with no single actor locking down established authority on this rail over the observed period. The top 2 actors together hold less than the remaining 8 combined, which means the opening slot is contested from multiple directions. For any actor monitoring its AI visibility on this market, the observation signals that cumulative opening volume over the period is spread wide enough that position shifts between adjacent ranks require only marginal changes in opening frequency.

FAQ
- What does AI opening share measure?
- AI opening share captures which actor is cited at the very opening of an AI Overview answer — the primacy slot. It is not the same as general citation share (which counts all citations within an AI answer) and it does not measure organic search ranking.
- How was this panel calculated?
- The panel aggregates AI Overview opening data across 7 comparable scheduled runs in the observation period August 17–23, 2026, covering 126 queries per run on Google desktop in Saint-Barthelemy. Each actor's share is its total openings divided by a single period-wide denominator. The panel is ranked by cumulative opening volume, not by an average of daily values.
- Does this observation establish a longer-term trend?
- This observation does not establish a longer-term trend. It covers a 7-run window — enough to map the competitive surface on this AI opening-control rail, but AI Overview opening behavior is volatile across queries, models, and dates. Future windows may produce different panel compositions and rankings.
