  "question": "Why did my brand disappear from Google AI Overviews answers?",
  "description": "Discover why your brand disappeared from Google AI Overviews. Learn how to diagnose citation gaps and recover visibility using Trakkr's citation intelligence tools.",
  "summary": "Brand disappearance in Google AI Overviews often stems from shifts in model synthesis rather than traditional SEO penalties. Trakkr provides the diagnostic tools required to monitor citation rates, identify prompt-specific visibility gaps, and ensure your content remains machine-readable for AI answer engines.",
  "answer": "When your brand disappears from Google AI Overviews, it is typically due to changes in how the model synthesizes information for specific user queries. Unlike traditional search, AI systems prioritize content that directly answers a prompt with high relevance and authority. You must shift your focus from keyword ranking to citation intelligence to understand if your brand is being excluded due to technical crawler issues or a lack of content relevance. Trakkr helps you monitor these shifts by tracking your presence across buyer-style prompts, allowing you to identify exactly where your brand is missing and why the model has stopped citing your specific URLs.",
