AI Overviews Checker

An AI Overview is the AI-generated summary Google places above its usual blue-link results for many searches — formerly known as SGE. This checker scans your keywords to show which queries trigger an AI Overview, whether your site is cited inside it, and which competing domains were cited instead of you.

What this checks

• •Which of your keywords actually trigger an AI Overview — not every query produces one, so the first question is where the box even appears.
• •Whether your domain is cited inside the AI Overview when one shows for a keyword you track.
• •Which competing domains got cited instead of you, and on exactly which queries they took the citation.
• •The content format each AI Overview pulls from — list-style answers, step-by-step explanations, definitions, or comparison passages.
• •Whether ranking in the classic top 10 translates into being cited — a top-10 position alone does not guarantee a citation when the box appears.

How to read your score

Your score is the percentage of your tracked keywords where an AI Overview appears and your site is cited in it. A score near 0% while AI Overviews show up on most of your queries means Google is answering your searchers with a box that quotes someone else — your rankings can look healthy while the visibility above them belongs to competitors. Closing that gap is mostly a content-format problem: AI Overviews tend to cite concise, structured passages that answer the query directly. Emberquill's paid product diagnoses which of your pages fall short and produces content structured the way AI Overviews actually cite — structured, quotable, well-schema'd.
