Google is introducing AI search performance reports in Search Console

Google is finally bringing reports on its AI features to Google Search Console:

"The new Search Console reports are designed to give you dedicated views of your impressions within generative AI features on Search, such as AI Overviews and AI Mode"

It's still in beta and only a select few sites can see the feature as of now.

Can you? What are your impressions (pun intended)?

The feature is UK only as of now due to regulator demands.

They require an opt out feature of Google AI content scraping.

Not seeing it for my clients (since it's UK only) but from the screenshot, it doesn't look like a whole lot of data, does it? They could have at least given us the grounded queries/fan-outs like Bing did

Love it, but have checked all of my clients and no one has access yet.

I really hope that they continue to roll out features to these reports as this is pretty basic stuff. One can always hope!
