A weighted self-assessment of the two tracks Google AI rewards separately. AI Overviews scores page-level ranking and extraction; AI Mode scores domain depth, off-site co-citation and freshness. Weights reflect each lever's pull on citations; real results depend on execution and competition.
How this works
Google's two AI surfaces agree on sources just 13.7% of the time, so they have to be earned separately. AI Overviews is a ranking game with a summary layer on top, win it with top-10 positions, schema and 40-55 word answer blocks. AI Mode is an authority game decided before a click that never comes, win it with depth, proprietary research and off-site co-citation. This scorecard scores both tracks, then ranks your biggest unrealized points across them.
