How it works

From one keyword to all of them

01

Check a keyword free

Enter a keyword and your domain. Rank.ai runs the search once and shows whether an AI Overview appeared, the sources it lists and your organic position.

02

Add your keywords to the rank tracker

Track 3, 25, 100 or 500 Google keywords on Free, Starter, Growth or Agency. Rank.ai records a position for each keyword every day.

03

See where an Overview sits above you

Each tracked keyword shows the search features on its results, AI Overviews included, so you can see where an Overview pushes your listing down.

Why it matters

Checking a keyword and tracking your keywords

An AI Overview sits above the organic results, so it changes what a first place ranking is worth. Google says it shows one only when its systems judge that it adds to the classic results, and whether one appears can change over time. That is why it helps to know, for every keyword you care about, whether an Overview is showing.

The check on this page answers the full question for one keyword: is there an Overview, and does it cite you? The Rank.ai rank tracker answers the first half for all your keywords every day, beside your position. It doesn’t record which sites an Overview cites, so use the free check when you need that for a particular keyword.

For AI answers beyond Google, Rank.ai asks ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini the questions you track every day, and the free AI visibility checker runs one question across all three. The AI Overviews guide explains how Overviews pick their sources.

Frequently asked

Is this an AI Overviews rank tracker?
The widget is a one keyword check. Tracking happens in Rank.ai's rank tracker, which records your Google position for every tracked keyword each day and flags the ones where an AI Overview appears. It doesn't record the Overview's text or the sites it cites.
What does the free check show?
Whether an AI Overview was detected for your keyword, a preview of its text, the sources it lists with your site marked, and your position if you are in the top 20 organic results.
Why track AI Overviews at all?
Because an Overview above your listing changes what your ranking is worth, and Overviews come and go on the same keyword. Knowing which of your keywords show one tells you where to work on being cited.
Can I rank first and still not be cited?
Yes. Google says AI Overviews can run several related searches to build an answer, so the pages they link to can differ from the top organic results for your exact search.
How does Rank.ai's tracking work?
The rank tracker checks your tracked keywords through a search data provider, records a position every day and notes the search features on each results page, such as an AI Overview. Separately, Rank.ai asks ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini the questions you track daily, and you can add Perplexity, Grok or DeepSeek to any question.
