Bing AI Mode
Bing AI Mode as a querying.ai result: Bing’s answer comparing three commuter earbuds by battery life with the page it cites, and two of the 18 sponsored products above the answer with their prices

Ask Bing AI Mode, also called Bing Copilot Search, in 11 countries and receive its answer with the pages it read, the places it names and the sponsored products above it.

What you get

  • BING_AIMODE: the answer from Bing AI Mode, the AI MODE tab of Bing at bing.com/copilotsearch, also called Bing Copilot Search. BING_COPILOT_SEARCH and COPILOT_SEARCH are accepted as aliases.
  • Every result carries text, markdown with [n] citations, sources, places and sponsoredProducts.
  • sources lists every page Bing read for the answer, and each [n] matches the source at position: n. Pages read without a citation carry uncited: true, so you see both what Bing read and what it cited.

How it works

Each task opens Bing AI Mode as a new signed-out visitor from the country you set, and Bing answers in that country’s language. A task asks as a new visitor up to eight times within seven minutes and completes with the first full answer. Most answers arrive in 20 to 80 seconds.

Bing AI Mode answers in US, AU, BR, CA, DE, FR, GB, IN, JP, MX and SG. country defaults to US, and a question can be up to 2,000 characters. Other countries return 422 REGION_UNSUPPORTED when you submit.

Asked for three commuter earbuds in the US, Bing returned 10 sources, cited 3 of them and showed 18 sponsored products above the answer.

Bing AI Mode is one of three Microsoft engines, each reading a different screen:

  • BING_SEARCH (Bing Search): the bing.com results page, with organic results, ads, related searches and the AI summary above them as aioverview.
  • BING_AIMODE (Bing AI Mode): the AI answer page at bing.com/copilotsearch.
  • COPILOT (Microsoft Copilot): the Copilot chat at copilot.com. BING_COPILOT and MICROSOFT_COPILOT are accepted as aliases, and the response returns COPILOT as taskType.

Where it helps

  • Track how Bing’s AI answer recommends your brand in 11 markets, each in its own language.
  • Compare the pages Bing AI Mode cites with the organic results BING_SEARCH returns for the same question.
  • See which products advertisers place above the answer with sponsoredProducts.
