Measure Gemini and Google Search AI separately

Gemini Apps and Google's AI Overviews or AI Mode are different places to appear. Their controls and reports overlap only in specific ways. We check the intended surface before interpreting a citation or changing a publisher setting.

## Access and evidence

Check | What the evidence establishes | 
Gemini App | Responses may show sources or related links; some do not. Record the actual app response and source panel. Gemini sources guidance. | 
Google Search AI | AI Overviews and AI Mode supporting links require a page to be indexed and eligible for a Search snippet. Eligibility does not guarantee display. Search requirements. | 
Google-Extended | This robots product token governs Gemini Apps and certain Vertex grounding uses as well as future model training. It has no separate HTTP user agent and does not control Search inclusion or ranking. Scope of the token. | 
Search reporting | Search Console's generative AI report covers AI Overviews and AI Mode impressions. It does not measure Gemini App responses; a report may be absent when impressions are insufficient. | 
llms.txt and schema | Google Search ignores llms.txt and requires no special AI schema. Existing markup should accurately describe the visible page. Google's current guide. | 

## Practical priorities for beauty businesses

- For Search AI, inspect the indexed page, canonical URL and snippet eligibility in Search Console. A successful live fetch is only an access check.

- Review Google-Extended with its combined grounding and training scope in mind; record the existing policy before changing it.

- Publish original answers, specifications and evidence with clear scope. Avoid creating a page for every wording variation of a question.

- Keep Gemini App checks, Google Search AI reporting and Gemini API grounding experiments in separate measurement groups.

## How to measure this surface

For Gemini, save the app's full answer and available sources. For Google Search AI, use the dedicated Search Console impressions report by page, country, device and date. Neither dataset establishes the other surface's performance.
Follow the measurement methodology: keep retrieval, citation, factual accuracy and qualified enquiries as separate outcomes.

## Published evidence

A published Gemini sample is pending in the AI Supplier Index. This guide reports reviewed platform guidance, not a completed visibility baseline. See our measurement methodology for the evidence required before publishing results.

## Illustrative buyer questions

FAQ
Q: Is Google-Extended only a training control?
A: No. Google's documentation also includes grounding in Gemini Apps and Grounding with Google Search on Vertex AI. It is a robots control token, not a separate crawler user agent.
Q: Does a Search AI impression count as a Gemini citation?
A: No. The Search Console report covers AI Overviews and AI Mode. Gemini App visibility needs its own observed answers and sources.
Q: Why is the generative AI report missing in Search Console?
A: Google says this usually happens when a site has not received enough impressions in Search generative AI features. Record the report as unavailable and check eligibility; do not convert its absence into a measured Gemini result.
