Track AI Mode in Position Tracking

Semrush has added AI Mode as a new search engine option within its Position Tracking tool. Marketers can use this feature to track how their domains show up in Google's recently launched generative AI experience.

With this update, users can view their visibility in AI Mode right alongside traditional search data, offering a clearer picture of how Google's evolving interface impacts performance.

No need for workarounds or outside tools-just select AI Mode as a search engine and start tracking from your Semrush project.

Why AI Mode Visibility Is Important

Google's AI Mode delivers summarized answers directly, reducing the need for clicks to external sites, like in traditional organic search.

Even without a click, visibility in AI Mode puts your brand front and center.

It can boost awareness, credibility, and influence user decisions, especially when your brand appears in response to high-intent queries.

Tracking this presence gives SEOs and marketers a way to know their visibility in a new and evolving AI search environment.

Key Features and Limits

The AI Mode option in Position Tracking offers:

• Daily rank tracking updates for where your site ranks across your set of target keywords/prompts
• Average position and visibility trend monitoring

Built for Today's SEO Landscape
