Track your brand in Google AI Mode.

Google AI Mode answers a search with a written answer and a few links, and Google says it has passed 1 billion users. Visibian runs your buyers' searches in AI Mode, in the markets you choose, and keeps every answer with its links.

How Google AI Mode finds its answers

One question becomes many searches.

Search Console counts AI Mode clicks inside its Web report, mixed in with every other search. It can't show you which answers named you.

Google says AI Mode can use query fan-out: it runs several related searches across subtopics, then writes one answer. That's why it can cite a wider set of pages than a normal results page.

To be one of those pages, a page needs to be in Google Search and allowed to show a snippet. Google says there are no extra technical requirements.

What to check on your site

4 things that decide whether AI Mode can cite you.

01

Be in Google Search, with a snippet

nosnippet and a short max-snippet limit what AI Mode can show from your page. Check them on the pages you want cited.

02

Answer the questions around the question

Because AI Mode runs related searches, a page that answers one part of a buyer's question well can be cited.

03

Keep the important content in text

Google's advice is to keep important content in text form, and to link to it from your other pages.

04

Look at the answer, as well as the click

Search Console counts clicks. Visibian shows each AI Mode answer, who it named and the pages it cited.

In Visibian

Every Google AI Mode answer about you, kept in full.

Named or not

Whether Google AI Mode named you, and how often across your questions, with a 95% confidence range.

The links it cited

Every page AI Mode linked to, so you see which sources Google's answer trusted.

Market by market

AI Mode is read as a buyer in each market sees it, so a German answer is tracked apart from a US one.

Why it picked someone else

Why not me? says whether your page was never retrieved, read and passed over, or retrieved but not cited.

Google offers no official API for AI Mode, so Visibian reads each answer from Google's own results page, through a search-results provider, as a buyer in your market would see it. If an answer can't be read, that question is skipped for the run and costs no credit. The same questions go to the 6 other assistants on every plan. Checked 18 October 2026.

Questions

Asked before you ask.

How do I see if my brand shows up in Google AI Mode?

Add your brand and the questions your buyers ask. Visibian asks them in AI Mode, daily or weekly, and shows every answer in full, with whether you were named and which pages were cited.

Does my site need special files or code for AI Mode?

No. Google says a page needs to be in Google Search and able to show a snippet, and that there are no extra technical requirements.

Does Visibian track Google AI Overviews?

No. AI Overviews is the short summary above Google's results. Visibian tracks AI Mode, Google's conversational search, alongside 6 other assistants.

How is AI Mode different from Gemini?

AI Mode lives inside Google Search and answers from the pages Google Search has found. Gemini is Google's assistant in its own app. Visibian tracks both, on every plan.

How do I get my brand into AI Mode answers?

AI Mode is part of Google Search, so your pages have to appear in Google Search first. Then the work is the same as for any assistant: pages that answer the question plainly, and mentions on the sites it cites. Our GEO guide sets out 7 steps.
