Gemini

Gemini is Google's standalone AI engine, sitting alongside Google AI Overviews in the Google ecosystem.

Google GeminiBard

Gemini is Google's consumer AI engine (formerly „Bard"), separate from but adjacent to Google AI Overviews. Gemini lives at gemini.google.com and inside many Google product surfaces — Workspace, Android, Chrome. Optimising for Gemini overlaps heavily with optimising for Google AIO: schema markup, top-10 organic, answer-first structure. Gemini's crawler-respect signals are governed by `Google-Extended` in robots.txt — separate from `Googlebot` for classical search.
