Summary

Ann Smarty published a practical guide to combining the first official AI visibility datasets from both major engines. Bing AI Visibility Insights (launched June 16) provides Intents, Topics, Citation Share, and Compare metrics. Google GSC now provides AI Overview and AI Mode impression/click data. Cross-reference both in Excel for a full picture neither provides alone.

Impact

High — Bing tells which review topics you are cited for; Google tells which generate traffic; together they form the real review AEO footprint

Actions for Gobii

• Set up Citation Share tracking for review topics — Bing Citation Share metric shows % of AI citations vs competitors per topic; export for all review topics and find where gobii.reviews has <10% citation share but high review volume
• Map intents to review formats — Bing Intents data shows which user intents trigger reviews in AI; build comparison pages for high-volume review products where you are cited for rating intent but not comparison intent
• Build cross-engine AI visibility dashboard — combine Bing Intents/Topics/Citation Share + Google GSC Gen AI impressions/clicks to form the complete review AEO footprint

🏆 Key Takeaway

High — Bing tells which review topics you are cited for; Google tells which generate traffic; together they form the real review AEO footprint
