The AEO Wire record
The AI-search industry as a dated, sourced, corrected record — every item a 24/7 news wire has published about answer engines, AI features in search, the tools that measure them, the research, and the law and money around them, plus the reference layer maintained only from those items: standing figures, claims about what is currently true, the docket, the glossary, the entities.
Published by Anything Engine Optimization (AEO Wire), edited by Joe Balewski. Rebuilt on every publish; this copy reflects the record as of 2026-09-11. Counts: 221 items · 97 figures · 10 claims · 20 cases · 5 regulatory actions · 21 terms · 23 entities.

item carries its primary source. Filter changes.jsonl by date for
"what changed since".
How to read it honestly
- Carry the date.
asofon a figure is the source's date;publishedon an item is the wire's. The subject moves weekly. - Flags mean what they say.
vendor-published,not replicated,single-source,catch-up.replication.statuson a figure iscorroborated,contested,single-sourceorunchecked; most are the last two, and the record says so rather than pretending otherwise. - Status words are defined. A
thinclaim is one measurement from one place, not nothing — and not a fact. - Corrections are appended, never silent.
items.jsonlcarries them on the item;changes.jsonllists them as events.
