Merchant Centre rolls out an AI performance report.

Written by Paid Media Collective
IN BRIEF

Select Merchant Centre accounts now show an AI performance report inside Analytics, surfacing AI Mode and AI Overviews data for your products. Metrics include query groups users type into AI search, share of voice for those terms, term popularity, and popular product attributes, following help documentation first spotted by Hana Kobzová and interface digging by Brodie Clark.
