SERP Feature Detector

SERP features are the non-standard result types Google shows on a results page, such as AI Overviews, People Also Ask boxes, video carousels and local packs, and a SERP feature detector shows which of them appear for each keyword.

5 free checks per day per visitor (each check can cover up to 5 keywords). Identical requests are cached for 24 hours.

Results are live snapshots from a search data source, not scraped from your browser.

How to use the SERP Feature Detector

1
List your keywords. Enter up to 5 keywords, one per line.
2
Choose a country. Pick the market to request results for.
3
Run detection. Press Detect features. Each keyword is checked on a desktop Google results page.
4
Read the matrix. A check mark shows a feature was present for that keyword. Switch to JSON to copy the raw counts.

Why SERP features matter

A results page full of features can push organic listings down and change how many clicks they receive. Knowing which features appear for a keyword tells you whether a plain blue-link ranking is the whole opportunity.

Features are detected from the structured result types in a single desktop request, so a feature that appears only on mobile, only in some locations, or only for some users may not show here.

Frequently asked questions

Does this detect AI Overviews?

It reports an AI Overview when the results data for that request includes one. Google does not show AI Overviews for every query or user, so a missing AI Overview means it was not present in that request, not that it never appears.

Which SERP features can appear?

Common ones include featured snippets, People Also Ask, video, images, local pack, shopping, top stories, knowledge panels, related searches and ads. This tool lists whatever types come back for your keywords, not a fixed list.

Why check only on desktop?

To keep the free tool quick and low cost, each keyword is checked once on a desktop results page. Mobile layouts can show different features.

How many keywords can I check?

Up to 5 per run. Each keyword is a separate live request, which is why the limit is small. Larger lists are better handled through an API.
