Shrinking, but name searches are up 9.8% on a year ago.

Over two years, visits went from 17M in October 2024 to a high of 29M in February 2026, and stand at 22M in September 2026. Five sites take 51.1% of visits, so one ranking change at the top moves the whole line.

Miles explains

I only call a market growing when visits and name searches agree. Here visits are down and name searches are up, so they don’t agree yet.

“ai video generator” is searched about 1,500,000 times a month worldwide, 16% of it in the US.

Google Trends barely registered “ai video generator” until May 2023; interest then climbed to its peak in March 2026. Americans make 16% of the searches but only 7% of the visits, because the big sites also draw heavily from India, Brazil and Canada.

Miles explains

Google Trends shows direction, not volume. Interest is about the same than a year ago, and I only trust that when the visits move the same way.

Fewer visits than a year ago, but more people searching by name, and the next six months look about flat.

The fastest growers over the year, JoggAI, Wan and Morph Studio, each grew several times over, usually from a small base. The losers, led by Yepic AI, lost most of their search visits (-88%).

Magic Hour +21%

Biggest loss this month

Morph Studio -56%

Miles explains

Huge percentages like JoggAI’s +729% usually mean one site won a big Google ranking from a small start. I watch whether it holds the next month.

I expect October 2026 to be about the same as September 2026, and the next six months to look down.

The forecast carries the level of recent months forward, not the trend line, because that version missed least when tested on past months. October is usually a quieter month than average for searches, but the calendar did not improve the forecast, so it is left out.

Read the range, not the single number: tested on the last 6 months, my method landed inside its range 4 times.

The most visited is invideo, with 3 million visits a month, 14% of all visits.

invideo and PixVerse together hold 24% of all visits. Below the top five the market is long and thin: the other 44 sites share 48.9%.

Miles explains

invideo alone has 14% of all visits. That’s a big lead, but one Google update can close it fast.
