category within Search campaign reporting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That means advertisers running AI Max-enabled campaigns can now segment their Keywords tab by \u201cSearch terms match type\u201d and see performance data specifically tied to AI Max queries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s what\u2019s new:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>AI Max reporting includes key campaign metrics such as ROAS, CPA, CPC, and revenue.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>It separates automated results from traditional Broad, Phrase, and Exact match types.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Advertisers gain visibility into how automation is performing, not just overall campaign results.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Here is what <a

class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-ai-max-works-a-blend-of-signals\">How AI Max works: A blend of signals<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>AI Max is powered by Google\u2019s latest automation logic, combining:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Broad match reach<\/strong> to expand beyond predefined keywords.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Creative asset signals<\/strong> to align queries with ad text and visuals.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Landing page content<\/strong> to surface queries related to site themes.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>This hybrid approach expands reach but also raises concerns about cost control and relevance. Without reporting, advertisers had little clarity on how AI Max queries were driving spend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, with AI Max isolated as its own match type, marketers can finally monitor whether automation is helping performance or simply broadening exposure at a higher cost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-ai-max-vs-broad-phrase-and-exact-match-types\">AI Max vs Broad, Phrase, and Exact match types<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s understand how AI Max vs Broad vs Phrase vs Exact match types differ.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"686\" src=\"https:\/\/birdeye.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Comparison-table-AI-Max-vs-Broad-vs-Phrase-vs-Exact-match-1024x686.jpg\" alt=\"Comparison table- AI Max vs Broad vs Phrase vs Exact match\" class=\"wp-image-63765\" srcset=\"https:\/\/birdeye.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Comparison-table-AI-Max-vs-Broad-vs-Phrase-vs-Exact-match-1024x686.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/birdeye.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Comparison-table-AI-Max-vs-Broad-vs-Phrase-vs-Exact-match-300x201.jpg 300w, https:\/\/birdeye.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Comparison-table-AI-Max-vs-Broad-vs-Phrase-vs-Exact-match-768x515.jpg 768w, https:\/\/birdeye.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Comparison-table-AI-Max-vs-Broad-vs-Phrase-vs-Exact-match-810x543.jpg 810w, https:\/\/birdeye.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Comparison-table-AI-Max-vs-Broad-vs-Phrase-vs-Exact-match.jpg 1074w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted has-background\" style=\"background:linear-gradient(135deg,rgb(255,245,203) 0%,rgb(182,227,212) 74%,rgb(51,167,181) 100%)\"><strong>Pro Tip:<\/strong> Start by testing AI Max alongside Exact or Phrase match campaigns.
