Apple's latest visible AI Index is 75.2. Read the trend together with engine coverage and mention-rate signals rather than as a standalone forecast. That movement is useful context, but it is strongest when it lines up with engine coverage and mention-rate changes. A single score move should not be read as a full market or product signal.

Apple softened over the visible trend window, moving from 61.1 on 2026-04-30 to 58.9 on 2026-06-02. Use this trend alongside the engine breakdown to see whether movement is broad or isolated to a few engines.
