Google Ads put worldwide searches for "ai document automation" at or below the US and the other countries added up, so the worldwide figure is not used.
Brand-name searches leave out Infrrd, Ironclad, Juro, Medius, Parseur, Reducto, Rossum and super.AI: the name is shared with an ordinary word or another product.
2How many people visited
In plain words: These sites got about as many visits from Google as a year ago (+2%), and September 2026 was about the same as August 2026 (-0.4%). Klippa (Doxis AI.dp), which takes 44.7% of all the visits, gained more visits on its own than the whole market gained in a year. Without it, visits would be down 42.1% on a year ago instead of up 1.9%.

Miles explains
Judge this line on the year, not the last dot: visits are about level with a year ago, and 75% below the October 2024 high. One site winning or losing a ranking can swing a single month a lot.
3How many people went looking
People typed a site’s name into Google 3% less often than in October 2025 (-3%). That is the loyalty number: nobody types a name by accident.
USSearches a month for the site names, United States
US searches a month for the counted brand names, summed. Google Ads data via DataForSEO, to September 2026.
Miles explains
Name searches are the number I trust most. They are down 3%, and nobody types a site’s name by accident, so this shows fewer people coming back on purpose.
4Where the visitors live
About 12 of every 100 visits come from the United States. Outside the US I measure 7 countries one by one; the largest is India.
