  "answer": "To effectively track brand mentions in Google AI Overviews, marketing operations teams must move beyond manual, one-off spot checks which fail to capture the dynamic nature of AI-generated responses. By implementing a systematic monitoring workflow, teams can track the presence of their brand, the quality of citations, and the specific source URLs that influence AI answers. Trakkr enables this by providing automated, platform-specific monitoring that benchmarks share of voice and competitor positioning. This approach allows teams to connect AI visibility directly to reporting workflows, ensuring that content strategy is informed by measurable data rather than anecdotal observations of search results.",
