Market demand
1Is the AI sales assistant market growing in 2026?
Shrinking, but visits are up 39% over the last six months.
Over two years, visits went from 236K in October 2024 to a high of 325K in July 2026, and stand at 243K in September 2026. Much of the year’s change is one site, Clari, which is why I also look at the market without it.

WorldVisits a month to AI sales assistant sites, worldwide
Miles explains
I only call a market growing when visits and name searches agree. Here visits are down and name searches are level, so they don’t agree yet.
Search trends
2How many people search for AI sales assistants in 2026?

Miles explains
Google Trends shows direction, not volume. Interest is lower than a year ago, and I only trust that when the visits move the same way.
Monthly analysis
3What changed in the AI sales assistant market in September 2026?
More visits than a year ago only because of Clari, name searches holding steady, and the next six months look flat.
The losers, led by Lavender, lost most of their search visits (-98%).

Miles explains
Huge percentages like Clari’s +318% usually mean one site won a big Google ranking from a small start. I watch whether it holds the next month.
Monthly forecast
4What happens next for AI sales assistants?
I expect October 2026 to be about the same as September 2026, and the next six months to look flat.
The forecast carries the level of recent months forward, not the trend line, because that version missed least when tested on past months.

Miles explains
Clari alone has 56% of all visits. That’s a big lead, but one Google update can close it fast.
