Google AI Mode visibility tracker
Google AI Mode answers in a conversation instead of ten blue links. Track whether it names your brand, which sources it leans on, and what it searched for to build the answer.
Google AI Mode is included from the Grow plan ($149/month) up.
Why measure Google AI Mode on its own
AI Mode is Google's conversational search tab. Its answers draw on Google's index but are written as a recommendation, so a page that ranks well in classic results can still be missing from the answer.
AI Mode runs several background searches for one question (query fan-out). Capturing them shows the sub-questions Google asked on the buyer's behalf, including lookups against brand domains to check claims.
Because the sources are Google-indexed pages, the cited-domain view turns directly into an outreach and content list: the pages to be mentioned on and the facts to make easy to verify.
What you see for every tracked prompt
Metric guide: definitions, formulas and how to read them- AI Generative Visibility RateAIGVR
- GEOly's composite 0–100 score for how visible a brand is inside AI answers. It combines whether the brand is named, where it appears in the answer, whether its own domain is cited, and the sentiment of the surrounding language — across every tracked prompt, engine and market.
- Share of ModelSoM
- The share of all brand mentions in a category's AI answers that belong to your brand. It places visibility in a competitive context instead of counting appearances in isolation.
- Citation Rate
- The share of tracked AI answers that cite the brand's own domain as a source. Being retrieved is not the same as being cited: an engine can read your page and still choose not to rely on it.
- Share of Card
- The share of AI shopping product cards in a category that are occupied by your products. This is the shelf metric of agentic commerce: AI assistants assemble a product shelf before the click, and the card decides which store the buy-now link points at.
- AI DA
- A source-side authority score for a domain — the AI-era counterpart to domain authority. It ranks how much a given publisher, retailer, forum or reference site actually feeds AI answers in a category, so outreach can be prioritized by influence on answers rather than by traditional backlink value.
- Query Fanout
- The background searches an AI engine runs while assembling one answer. Reading them shows what the engine was actually looking for — including site-restricted lookups against brand domains to verify claims like warranty, materials or certifications.
How Google AI Mode picks what to cite
- Query fan-out: one question expands into many sub-queries, each pulling its own sources.
- Strong E-E-A-T signals, structured data and entity clarity decide who gets linked.
- Freshness and consensus across the web reinforce a source’s inclusion.
How tracking works
- 01
Choose the questions
Add the prompts your buyers ask, by country and language. Competitors are detected from the answers, not only from a list you maintain.
- 02
GEOly asks on a schedule
Each prompt runs in the engine and the full answer is stored: brands named, their order, sentiment, cited sources and product cards.
- 03
Act on the gaps
See which prompts you lose, which sources the engine trusts in your category, and which facts it got wrong, then track the change.
FAQ
Does GEOly show the searches AI Mode ran for an answer?
Yes. Query Fanout captures the background queries an engine runs while assembling an answer, per tracked prompt. It is a list rather than a score, and it is often the fastest way to see which facts about your brand the engine tried to verify.
Is AI Mode the same as AI Overviews?
No. AI Overviews is the summary that appears above classic Google results; AI Mode is a separate conversational search experience. GEOly tracks them as two engines, and they often cite different sources for the same question.
Which GEOly plans include Google AI Mode?
Google AI Mode is included from the Grow plan ($149/month) up. Prices are in USD, billed monthly; see /pricing for the current per-plan list.
