AI Overview tracking shows what Google's AI answer says about you, search by search. The AI Overview sits above the blue links. Many buyers read it and never scroll. If it names a competitor and not you, a #1 ranking can still lose the click.
What the tracker checks
- Whether Google shows an AI Overview for the search
- Whether your brand is named in it
- Which competitors are named next to you
- Which pages and sites the AI Overview cites
Checked from your own city
AI Overviews change by location. Livesov runs each search from your brand's city, so a dentist in Denver sees the AI answer Denver patients see, not a national one.
Google AI Mode too
Google AI Mode is the full chat-style answer inside Search. Livesov tracks it next to the AI Overview, so you see both of Google's AI answers for the same search.
Next to your Google ranking
Add a keyword to the rank tracker and tick "also check AI answers". You get your organic position and your AI visibility in one row. That is how you spot a page that ranks well but is missing from the AI answer. See how it works on the rank tracker page.
Watch it change over time
AI Overviews come and go. Google adds one to a search, drops it a week later, or swaps the sites it cites. Livesov saves every answer it checks, so you can look back and see when your brand first appeared, when a competitor took your spot, and which of your pages Google trusts enough to cite.
And the other AI engines
Buyers ask ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity as well. Track them on the same dashboard and compare share of voice across every engine. Want to win more AI Overviews? Read the AI Overviews optimization guide.
