Google AI Mode favors trust over the cheapest price

Looks like Google AI Mode doesn’t care too much about finding the cheapest price.

The research showed that products in AI Mode are 21.6% more expensive (avg), while the overall product mix is 49% more expensive.

Only 1.28% of products overlap with traditional search results.

That’s actually good news because those who build enough AI trust will get recommended - not those who are the cheapest.

Better product data, reviews, brand signals, and context are becoming super important.
