Every month I add up the Google visits to the 14 AI clip maker sites I track (DataForSEO estimates) and how often people in the US search for them by name (Google Ads). In October 2026 they got about 1.9 million visits. Much of the year’s change is one site, Submagic; without it, visits are about level on a year ago.
The total hides very different stories: one site grew 6195% in a year while another lost 99.9% of its visits. See who grew and who shrank, the visits month by month and the name searches, plus what I expect for November 2026.

1.Are more people visiting AI clip maker sites than a year ago?
Down 26% on a year ago; about level with September 2026 (+0.3%)
Only because of Submagic. The 14 tracked AI clip maker sites got 1,949,924 visits from Google search in October 2026. That is 26% fewer visits than in October 2025, or about the same without Submagic, and about the same as in September 2026.
The highest month of the last two years was January 2025, with 8,318,765 visits; October 2026 is 77% below it. In the US, visits were 112,691, down 58% on a year ago.

Miles explains
Visits are lower than a year ago, but the fall looks like it has stopped: October 2026 was level on September 2026. Google Trends interest in the term fell (-14%), but name searches did not, so some interest has cooled.
2.Are people searching for AI clip maker sites by name?
Up 25% on October 2025; 30.4K name searches a month in the US
Yes, more than before. People in the US searched Google for the names of the counted AI clip maker sites 30,360 times in September 2026, 25% more searches than in October 2025. Someone who searches a site’s name already knows it, so this is the clearest sign of people coming back on purpose. The term “ai clip maker” itself gets about 1,900 US searches a month (Google Ads, 12-month average).

Miles explains
Name searches are up while visits are down, so people still know where to go. Google Trends interest in the term fell (-14%), so part of the drop may be lower interest too.
3.Which AI clip maker sites grew, and which shrank?
The five most-visited sites hold 96.2% of all visits; the ten most-visited hold 99.9%
The five most-visited AI clip maker sites get 96.2% of all visits, so one of them winning or losing a big Google ranking moves the whole total. Fastest grower over the year: WayinVideo, from 10,223 to 643,556 visits (+6195%). Steepest fall: Munch, from 18,623 to 13 visits (-99.9%).
