Are you in the AI answer?
For any buyer query, see if Google shows an AI Overview, whether your domain is cited (in its sources) or named (in its text), who else is, and where you stand on Bing. Results are the live US-English results (Google hl=en, gl=us and Bing cc=us). Cited and named are two different wins, this shows both.
What is AI Overviews & Bing Coverage Checker?
The AI Overviews & Bing Coverage Checker is a free tool that takes a search query and tells you whether Google shows an AI Overview for it, whether your domain is cited in that Overview's sources, whether your brand is named in its text, which other sites appear, and where you stand in Bing's results, checked against live US-English results (Google hl=en, gl=us and Bing cc=us). It separates being cited (listed as a source) from being named (mentioned in the answer), because those are two different outcomes.
How it works
You enter a buyer search query, optionally add your domain, and supply your own SerpApi key; the tool runs that query and reports the live US-English Google AI Overview and Bing results, checking whether your domain is cited, named, or ranked. A SerpApi key is required only for those literal Google and Bing results; without one, a Gemini key alone runs a clearly labeled grounded proxy that estimates likely citation sources, which is not the same as live Google or Bing data.
Who it’s for
For marketers, SEO and content teams, and business owners who want to know if AI search actually surfaces their brand for the queries their buyers use, so they can see gaps and prioritize the pages worth improving. The outcome is a clear read on your AI-answer visibility rather than guessing whether you show up.
In practice
A small agency checks the query "best CRM for small agencies" with its own domain: the tool shows Google displays an AI Overview, the agency is not cited in its sources and not named in the text, three competitor sites are, and on Bing the agency sits below those competitors, so the team knows exactly which query to build content for.
Your standing in AI Overviews.
Add a SerpApi key for the live Google AI Overview + Bing results. No SerpApi key? A Gemini key can run a grounded proxy to estimate likely citation sources, not the same as live Google AI Overview or Bing results.
Use your own API keys : used once for your request, never stored on our servers
Keys travel over HTTPS to our server, which calls SerpApi / each AI provider for this one request, then discards them, never logged or stored. Want this tracked weekly for you? Talk to us.
Questions, answered.
Yes, the tool is free to use. A SerpApi key is required only for the literal Google AI Overview and Bing results; if you have no SerpApi key, a Gemini key alone runs a clearly labeled grounded-AI proxy instead (a stand-in for what an AI answer would cite, not live Google or Bing data).
Yes, this is a bring-your-own-key tool: a SerpApi key for live results, or a Gemini key for the grounded proxy. Your API key is sent over HTTPS to NYFTY's server only to make the request(s) for that single run, is never logged or stored, and is discarded immediately after.
With a SerpApi key it checks the live US-English results (Google hl=en, gl=us and Bing cc=us): whether Google shows an AI Overview for your query, whether your brand or URL is named or cited there, who else appears, and how you show up in Bing. With only a Gemini key it returns the grounded-proxy answer and its sources instead.
It returns a coverage snapshot for the query: AI Overview presence, your named/cited status, competing sources or brands, and Bing standing. Use it to spot visibility gaps, compare competitors, and decide which pages or topics may need better coverage or authority signals.
Being named means your brand, site, product, or entity appears in the AI Overview text. Being cited means Google links to your page as a source; you can be named without being cited, cited without being prominently named, or both.
Google AI Overviews and Bing results can change based on timing, location, query wording, personalization, and search engine experiments, so one run is a snapshot rather than a permanent result. The tool depends on SerpApi and the live search results it returns, so it cannot guarantee future visibility, rankings, citations, or complete coverage.
