01 · Research Frame
Alphabet is a distribution company under AI pressure.
01 · Cash engine
Search Distribution
Search remains the main monetization surface. The data page tracks Search & other, YouTube ads, Network revenue, TAC, and global search share separately.
02 · Attention network
YouTube
YouTube ads are disclosed as a separate advertising line. Paid subscriptions are intentionally not automated here because disclosure is not stable enough.
03 · Enterprise AI layer
Google Cloud
Cloud revenue and operating income are stable SEC disclosure lines and can be refreshed mechanically after filings.
04 · Option pool
Other Bets
Other Bets is tracked only at the disclosed segment level. The page does not treat Other Bets losses as Waymo losses.

历史指标
Alphabet 的单季度数据容易误导。真正要跟踪的是 trend：搜索变现结构、TAC 压力、Cloud margin、Capex intensity、FCF conversion 和搜索份额。
SEC history will accumulate by filing
Search monetization mix
$63.3B
5 quarters captured
Search & other, YouTube ads, Network revenue, subscriptions/devices, and TAC need multiple quarters to show whether AI changes ad mix or distribution cost.
TAC pressure
19.8%
5 quarters captured
TAC / Google advertising revenue is a better pressure gauge than TAC alone because partner distribution cost should be read against ad revenue.
Google Cloud margin
35.6%
5 quarters captured
Cloud revenue growth matters less without operating leverage. Margin history is needed to separate scale benefits from AI infrastructure cost.
Capex intensity
67.3%
5 quarters captured
Capex / revenue shows how much AI infrastructure is absorbing incremental revenue and whether FCF conversion is changing.
FCF conversion
3.6%
5 quarters captured
Free cash flow margin connects Search cash generation, Cloud investment, and consolidated capex into one mechanical guardrail.
Search distribution share
85.9%
13 months captured
Search share is not revenue, but it is an early distribution signal. Monthly history is useful when AI interfaces begin changing user behavior.
Search share trend
StatCounter monthly, worldwide
Quarterly trend status
已回补 5 个 SEC quarterly points：2025Q1-Q3 来自 10-Q 三个月列，2025Q4 用 FY 2025 减九个月累计，2026Q1 来自最新 10-Q。趋势现在可以读，但 Q4 标记为 derived quarter。

06 · AI / Cloud / Capex
What can be tracked mechanically
AI changes search behavior
Watch whether AI Overviews and Gemini-like surfaces change query volume, ad load, click-through behavior, and TAC economics. User counts stay manual unless officially disclosed in a stable format.
Cloud margin versus AI capex
Cloud operating income is disclosed; capex is consolidated. The page keeps those facts separate and does not infer product-level AI ROI.
Distribution regulation
DOJ / EU events remain manual event entries because timing, remedies, and appeals are not stable machine-readable metrics.
Waymo optionality
Waymo rides, fleet size, service area, and city launches stay in manual events. They are not backfilled from Other Bets.
07 · Data Boundary
Annual cash-flow context
Annual SEC extraction is temporarily excluded because the latest automated parse failed reconciliation checks. Quarterly trend data and Search share remain active.
Automation policy
自动更新只维护 SEC filing、SEC data APIs 与 StatCounter GlobalStats 中稳定获取的机械数据。Gemini App MAU、AI Overviews、AI Mode、Waymo rides / fleet / service area、YouTube paid subscriptions、DOJ / EU 监管进展与 Waymo 新城市上线仍通过人工事件维护。
