You can retrieve the Organic positions report for your Position Tracking campaign to check which of your target keywords are eligible for AI SERP features and feature your domain. This lets you:

• Quantify brand exposure within AI-generated answers.
• Prioritize content optimization for AI-eligible keywords.

The report will reflect results for either Google or Bing, based on your Position Tracking campaign’s configured search engine.
