What we check
Gemini's grounding and Google's AI features largely inherit from the same crawl infrastructure as Search — but model training access is a separate opt-out, controlled by Google-Extended, not Googlebot.
- Googlebot indexability (the foundation most AI grounding relies on)
- Google-Extended rules for Gemini/Vertex AI training access
- Structured data supporting entity understanding
- Core Web Vitals and rendering health
Crawlers involved
Googlebot
Google's primary crawler for search indexing — the foundation most AI Overviews and Gemini grounding relies on.

Controls whether your content can be used to improve Gemini and Vertex AI models, separately from search indexing.

Confusing Googlebot and Google-Extended
Blocking Google-Extended to opt out of AI training also has no effect on standard Search indexing — they're independent.
Incomplete structured data
Partial schema coverage leaves Google's systems to infer details that could be stated explicitly.
How to fix them
Separate your Search and AI-training decisions
Configure Googlebot and Google-Extended independently based on what you actually want for each.
Complete your structured data
Fill gaps in Organization and content schema so entity signals are explicit rather than inferred.
Frequently asked
If I block Google-Extended, do I disappear from Google Search?
No. Google-Extended only controls use in Gemini and Vertex AI model training/grounding — it's independent of standard Search indexing, which Googlebot handles.
