"Visits to gemini.google.com -- the web domain for Google's flagship AI chatbot -- have more than doubled over the past year, according to new data from data aggregation company Similarweb. The Gemini webpage now constitutes 12.9% of total web traffic to online generative AI tools, Similarweb found, up from 6.4% in 2024. The data also shows that ChatGPT web usage overwhelmingly dominates that of other leading chatbots, representing around 74% of total chatbot web traffic."
"Methodological limitations Similarweb acknowledges that its measuring methodology is imperfect, however, since visits to a chatbot's primary web address don't necessarily reflect usage across the board. In Google's case, Gemini has been embedded across a number of the company's AI tools, including AI Overviews, which has become a core feature within its search engine. Measuring visits to gemini.google.com therefore only reflects one small slice of a probably much larger pie."
Visits to gemini.google.com have more than doubled over the past year and now account for 12.9% of web traffic to online generative AI tools, up from 6.4% in 2024. ChatGPT continues to command the largest share of chatbot web traffic at about 74%, down from roughly 87% a year earlier, indicating growing market competition. Traffic to xAI's Grok fell marginally from 3.1% to 2% over six months, while Microsoft Copilot remained roughly steady at about 1.2%. Similarweb cautions that measuring primary web addresses understates embedded usage, and Gemini appears across multiple Google AI integrations.
