Key reading

Why this reading matters

Private Aviation · London · AI citation · Jul 27 – Aug 2, 2026

Market implication

Private Aviation · London · AI citation · Jul 27 – Aug 2, 2026

The AI Overview citation rail on this market is distributed across the governed top 5, with no focused source approaching the citation volume of the rank-1 platform.

FAQ

What does AI citation share on this market measure?
It measures how often an actor's domain appears as a cited source inside AI Overview answers across the market's observed query set. It does not measure who opens AI answers, nor does it reflect organic search ranking.
Why does this card cover a 7-run window rather than a single day?
AI Overview content can vary by query, model behavior, and date. Aggregating citations across 7 comparable scheduled runs (July 27 – August 2, 2026) provides a broader evidence base than any single observation. AI Overview citation evidence was available on 7 of 7 runs in this window.
Does this card prove a longer-term trend in AI citations?
No. The card observes cumulative AI citation volume over a 7-run window. It does not establish whether these shares are rising, falling, or holding across a longer horizon.
