The AI Overview Playbook: The exact playbook to get featured in Google AI Overviews

Hey PH! I'm Alva, founder of AeroChat and STRIDEC (an SEO agency based out of Singapore). Late 2025, I set out to get AeroChat — a small AI SaaS startup — featured in Google's AI Overviews. It worked. AeroChat now shows up alongside Tidio, Gorgias, and Intercom when Google answers questions about AI chatbots. I then repeated the process to get myself named as a top AI SEO consultant in an AI Overview alongside some of the great names in the space. And then I did the same for a few of our agency clients — including a consumer brand client who went from zero AI Overview appearances to multiple in under 8 weeks. I documented everything — the exact process, the reasoning behind each step, the Search Console data showing the results. That became this playbook. It's built for founders, marketers, and SEO pros who want to get their brand into AI Overviews without a massive domain authority or a big team. The playbook is available on Gumroad — link above. Would love your feedback — happy to answer any questions about AI Overviews or the methodology.
