Introducing Search Generative AI performance reports in Search Console
Key Points
- Generative AI performance reports
- Dedicated Search and Discover views
- Staged rollout; request feedback
Summary
Google Search Console now includes dedicated Search Generative AI performance reports that show how your site appears within generative AI features on Search and Discover. The reports provide a separate view of generative-AI visibility while continuing to include that data in the overall performance report. The feature is rolling out to a subset of sites for testing and feedback.
Key Points
- Metrics provided: impressions, pages (URLs), countries, devices (Search-only), and time series with hourly/daily/weekly/monthly granularity.
- Scope: separate views for generative AI features in Search (AI Overviews, AI Mode) and Discover; data also aggregated in the overall performance report.
- Rollout & feedback: staged roll-out to a subset of sites; use the Search Console "Submit feedback" link, the dedicated feedback form, or the Google Search Central Community to report issues or request enhancements.
- Engineer actions: verify availability for your site, monitor impressions and country/device splits, and review hourly/day trends to detect content visibility changes driven by generative AI features.
- Future: Google may add additional metrics over time; consult the help center documentation for the full data schema and definitions.
