SE Ranking reported AI Overviews on 82.5% of US brand searches, while seoClarity's Mark Traphagen said the feature shows on over 62% of queries, ranging from 55% to 84% depending on industry.

This is from recent data from Semrush, SE Ranking, and seoClarity.\n\nIt is not surprising, we reported a month ago that Google was showing [AI Overviews for tons of brand searches](https://www.seroundtable.com/google-ai-overviews-large-brand-names-42195.html) and also Google was showing AI Overviews for [fake or incorrect queries](https://www.seroundtable.com/google-ai-overviews-no-results-42275.html) - which is all part of Google's plan to always have an answer for any query you might have.\n\nHere is a live chart that you can access on the [Semrush Sensor](https://www.semrush.com/sensor/?compare=serp%21321) tool:\n\nSemrush published a [ton of detail](https://www.semrush.com/blog/ai-overviews-commercial-modifiers-study/) broken down by industry, type of query and so on - so you can learn more there. Here is another chart from Semrush from that study:\n\nSE Rankings [published](https://visible.seranking.com/blog/ai-overviews-branded-searches/) new data saying AI Overviews appear on 82.5% of US brand searches. So this was specific to branded queries, and I assume it is higher for many non-branded queries.\n\nHere is SE Rankings chart:\n\nMark Traphagen from [seoClarity](https://www.seoclarity.net/) told me about a month ago that they see AI Overviews now for over 62% of queries but it can be 55% to 84% depending on industry.
