Brand-name searches leave out Akia, BE-A (FLÆ Robotics), Glace and Talkie.ai: the name is shared with an ordinary word or another product.
2How many people visited
In plain words: These sites got fewer visits from Google than a year ago (-12%), and September 2026 was a weaker month than August 2026 (-29%). Talkie.ai lost more visits on its own than the whole market lost in a year. Without it, visits would be up 0.7% on a year ago instead of down 11.8%. Frontdesk (My AI Front Desk) lost more visits in September 2026 (148,368) than the whole market did (130,716); without it, visits to the other sites rose 10.3% on August 2026.

Miles explains
Judge this line on the year, not the last dot: visits are 12% below a year ago, and 51% below the June 2026 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 7% less often than in October 2025 (-7%). That is the loyalty number: nobody types a name by accident.

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 7%, and nobody types a site’s name by accident, so this shows fewer people coming back on purpose.
4Where the visitors live
About 45 of every 100 visits come from the United States. Outside the US I measure 7 countries one by one; the largest is India.
