global daily share of search interest, month start vs latest; 14 of 26 tools moved ≥0.1pp. Full race chart on the compare page.
02 · country shifts
Top 10 per-country tool moves of the month. share of Google search interest — relative preference, not usage counts.
No country snapshot pair is available for this month — the daily country archive (history/tracker/) began on Jul 7, 2026, so months before that bake empty here. Where it exists, this section lists every tool move of ≥1pp between the month’s first and last snapshot.
03 · records set
1 archive record have been set or re-touched this month. Archive-era records only — the record book started Jul 7, 2026, so early months set many “firsts”.
Biggest 7-day global riser
ChatGPT rose 74.3 → 75.8% of global search interest over the 7 days ending Oct 2, 2026 — the biggest 7-day climb in the archive window since Jul 7, 2026. Share of Google search interest across the tracked tools — relative preference, not usage counts.
records span our archive era, never “all of AI history”. The archive era began Jul 7, 2026. The full book lives at the record book.
04 · the news that moved markets
Correlation, not causation — a share move next to a headline is circumstantial evidence, not proof.
No archived news item for this month has a measurable 7-day share reaction (reactions need a week of data after publication, and the wire archive began in Apr 2026). The live wire is at /tracker/news.
05 · methodology
This page is generated by a script, on the day stamped above, from the tracker’s own data files — no human wrote these numbers and no language model summarized them. Shares are anchor-normalized Google Trends search interest across 26 AI tools and 85 countries (share of Google search interest — relative preference, not usage counts). The race table reads the global daily series; country shifts read the daily snapshot archive; records read the record book; news reactions read the wire’s baked 7-day deltas. A live report re-bakes every morning until the month closes, then freezes as FINAL.
