  "answer": "Measuring traffic from Google AI Overviews requires a shift from traditional organic search metrics to citation-based intelligence. Because AI interfaces often synthesize information without direct click-throughs, standard referrer data is frequently incomplete or missing. To accurately measure your impact, you must monitor how often your URLs are cited within AI responses. Trakkr provides the necessary infrastructure to track these citations, allowing teams to correlate AI visibility with broader business outcomes. By treating citation rates as a primary performance indicator, you can effectively benchmark your brand's authority and presence against competitors within the evolving AI answer engine landscape.",
