What happened
TECH NOISY compared monthly average Google search counts for September 2025–August 2026 with the prior year. Gemini rose about 5.9× to 14.59 million a month, Claude about 4.4× (300,000 to 1.34 million), and ChatGPT about 2.1× (17.24 million to 35.84 million).
Why it matters
The comparison shows ChatGPT still has the most searches, but Gemini's faster growth means the two are now much closer in search volume than a year earlier.

WHO IT HITSMarketing and product teams at AI chatbot companies, who use search-volume trends to gauge consumer interest and compare against rivals, may see this as a sign that users are shopping around more.
