We analyzed our Brand Radar database of 108 million AI Overview queries to see which countries have the most AI Overviews present in Google search results.

These are the top 50 countries with the biggest proportion of AI Overviews worldwide.

Contents

We pulled data from our search index and calculated how many keywords appear in AI Overview queries compared to regular search queries that appear in SERPs in each country. Then we created a chart showing the countries with the highest share of AI Overviews in their SERPs.

If you expected the US to be in the top 10, you might be surprised. Right now, the clear leader is Indonesia, with AIOs appearing for 37.2% of all keywords, followed by the Philippines and Mexico (29.1%), India (26.8%), and Nigeria (26.4%).

The US sits in 13th position with AIOs triggering for 20.5% of all queries, with Canada (19.2%) and the UK (19.1%) in 17th and 18th position.

We also looked at the top 10 languages dominating AI Overviews. English accounts for more than 50% of all AI Overviews worldwide.

Spanish is second, accounting for 11.48% of all AI Overviews, followed by Portuguese (5.01%), Japanese (4.37%), and German (3.82%).

Google is slowly expanding language coverage for AI Mode as well, so these numbers will likely change in the near future. But for now, we can see that English leads by a large margin — partly because most of the content AI models are trained on is still in English.

Rank Language Total AIOs AIOs by language %
1 English (all) 108450229 57202630 52.75%
2 Spanish (all) 108450229 12453390 11.48%
