Record month for AI agents. A crashed site did over half.

Genspark kept just 1 in 8 of its visits in March. In September, it drove most of the market's growth.

AI agent sites got about 4.2 million visits from Google in September, a record. Genspark, down to about 1 in 8 of its old visits in March, added about 410,000 of the 747,000 new ones. So how did a fallen star pull that off, and who else helped?

The short version

4.2M: AI agent visits from Google in September, a record.
Genspark: about 410,000 of 747,000 new visits.
1 in 8: Genspark visits left at its March low.

A brand new high

In October 2024, AI agent sites had about 52,000 visits from Google.

Now they have about 4.2 million. That's about 80 times more in under two years.

Over the last year alone, visits are up 181.1%. That's wild.

So who pushed the market to its record this time?

The big fall

Meet Genspark. In October 2025, it had about 1.17 million visits.

No site on my list had more that month.

Then it slid. By March 2026, it had about 145,000 visits.

That's only about 1 in 8 of its old visits. Ouch.

Most stories end there. This one didn't.

The comeback

By September, Genspark was back to about 943,000 visits.

That's about 6.5 times its low, in just six months.

In September alone, it grew 76.9%.

It added about 410,000 visits. The whole market added about 747,000.

Take Genspark out, and the market still grew 11.5%. So others helped too.

Who were they?

The numbers

AI agent visits, Septembera record: 4.2M
Genspark in Septemberin one month: +76.9%
Skywork's growthin 12 months: 53x

The other climbers

Hermes Agent grew 148% in September, to about 91,000 visits.

Skywork went from about 12,900 visits to about 687,000 in a year.

Meanwhile, Manus is still the most visited site, with about 1.34 million.

But Manus slipped 5% in September. The leader took a small step back.

So is this market wide open? Not quite.

A crowded top

The top five sites get 93.1% of all visits.

So it's a small club. But places in that club keep changing fast.

Genspark is still down 20% from a year ago. It's back, but not all the way.

My guess? Nobody stays on top here for long. I can't prove why from this data.

You can track every month on my AI agent statistics page.
