AI Overview monitoring

Track Google AI Overview presence across your query portfolio. Surfaces both whether AIO renders for the query and whether your brand is in it. The cheapest live mode at $0.05/call with <5s p95 latency.

Why this is the new SEO

Google's AI Overview now sits above the organic SERP for ~40% of informational queries. If your brand isn't surfaced in the AIO citations, you've lost the top of the SERP for that query — even if you rank #1 organically. This recipe builds the coverage map so you know which queries you're winning vs losing on the AIO surface.

Code

Cost

5 queries × $0.05 = $0.25 per snapshot. Run daily: $7.50/month for a daily 5-query AIO presence dashboard.
