The Problem
Google AI Overviews now appear for 30-40% of informational queries, and the pages they cite get significant traffic. But AI Overview citations change frequently, and there is no native tool from Google to track them. Manual checking does not scale past 20 keywords.

- Identify which domains get cited and citation position
- Detect citation gains and losses day-over-day
- Cost: $0.005 per keyword check, $15/month for 100 daily keywords
