Is your site ready for Google AI Overviews?
AI Overviews appear above the blue links for most informational queries. They cite a small set of sources. Reffed checks whether your website is ready to be one of them. It cannot promise to be cited.
Most informational queries now show an AI Overview block first.
Users read the AI answer and often don't scroll. The traffic that used to flow to top organic results now flows to the cited sources inside the AI block. Ranking #1 organically with no AI Overview citation can mean fewer clicks than ranking #5 inside the cited set.
Allow Google-Extended
Google's AI training is gated by a separate user agent. We confirm your robots.txt allows it without compromising your normal Googlebot rules.
Survive the SERP retrieval step
AI Overviews still pull from top organic results. Ranking well organically helps, and nobody can promise it. Reffed shows technical problems that may hold your pages back.
Structure for citation extraction
AI Overviews favor sources with clean question-answer structure, strong schema, and concrete claims. Reffed checks your important pages for all three.
Track AI Overview presence
Measuring which of your top queries trigger AI Overviews and who is cited is part of AI Visibility, which is Experimental and not available yet.
