Google Just Launched AI Search Reporting — Here's How to Actually Find It
For two years, marketers asked when Google would let them measure AI search the way Search Console and Analytics measure traditional search. As of June 3, 2026, there's a first answer: a dedicated Generative AI performance report covering AI Overviews and AI Mode. The catch is it's genuinely hard to find — a staged beta living in its own view — and it's impressions-only, with no clicks, queries, or traffic data, and limited to Google's own surfaces. This guide shows exactly how to locate the report, explains what it measures and what it doesn't, and gives a grounded read on when the fuller GEO and AEO toolkit is likely to arrive.

Here's what actually matters.
