Shrinking, but visits are up 54% over the last six months.

Over two years, visits went from 477K in November 2024 to a high of 1.8M in September 2026, and stand at 1.6M in October 2026. Much of the year’s change is one site, Aircall, which is why I also look at the market without it.

Miles explains

I only call a market growing when visits and name searches agree. Here visits are down and name searches are down, so they agree.

Google Trends barely registered “ai call center software” until June 2025; interest then climbed to its peak in May 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.

More visits than a year ago only because of Aircall, but fewer people searching by name, and the next six months look flat after a step up.

The fastest growers over the year, Aircall, Talkdesk and NICE CXone, grew fastest, mostly from a smaller base. The losers, led by Knowmax, lost most of their search visits (-71%).

Biggest gain this month

Genesys +45%

Biggest loss this month

Cresta -22%

Miles explains

Huge percentages like Aircall’s +242% usually mean one site won a big Google ranking from a small start. I watch whether it holds the next month.

I expect November 2026 to be 3% more than October 2026, and the next six months to look up.

The forecast carries the level of recent months forward, not the trend line, because that version missed least when tested on past months.

Expected in November 2026

1,634,004 visits

Likely range

1.4M to 1.9M

Expected in May 2027

1.6M +4%

Past forecasts in range

4 of 6 months

Miles explains

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 Aircall, with 1.1 million visits a month, 70% of all visits.

Aircall and NICE CXone together hold 80% of all visits. Below the top five the market is long and thin: the other 8 sites share 3.9%.

Miles explains

Aircall alone has 70% of all visits. That’s a big lead, but one Google update can close it fast.

Yes. Every number on these pages comes from two CSV files, free to download.
