| Keyword | Volume/mo | KD | CPC | Read |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ★ ai bom | 210 | 8 | $13.17 | The one real signal: +136% yearly, driven by EU AI Act Article 53 (full AI component inventory required since Aug 2025). But the SERP is a security-vendor and standards-body wall — Palo Alto, OWASP (with a FREE open-source AIBOM generator), Cycode, NIST, CycloneDX — plus an AI Overview. The wedge exists; it is not empty. |
| ai model license checker / ai model license | — | — | — | Codex's head word: not in the database at all — the eighth 'vocabulary not formed' case in our archive. Codex pre-declared this and routed launch acquisition to GitHub/HF communities; measurement confirms. |
| hugging face license | 30 | 19 | — | The platform-specific tail: 30/mo, declining. Real intent, tiny pool. |
| llama license commercial use / open source license checker | 20 | 56 | — | The rest of the tail, for the record: 10-10/mo, and the generic checker word is KD 56 (fossa/black-duck territory). Nothing hidden here. |
SERP breakdown: ai bom (Google US, measured 2026-07-23)
| # | Result | What it is |
|---|---|---|
| AIO | Large AI Overview | Definition + checklist + regulatory context, citing Palo Alto/OWASP/GitHub |
| 1 | paloaltonetworks.com | Security giant's cyberpedia entry |
| 2 | genai.owasp.org | OWASP AIBOM Generator — a FREE open-source tool already exists |
| 3 | github.com/Trusera | Open-source AI-BOM scanner (README cites EU AI Act Art. 53 directly) |
| 4-6 | Cycode / Manifest Cyber / NIST | Vendor guides + standards bodies |
| 7 | ecisolutions.com | Irrelevant (manufacturing BOM) — the term has meaning pollution |
| 8-9 | owaspaibom.org / CycloneDX | Standards orgs |
| Related | 8 items | AI BOM tools, AI BOM Generator, Wiz AI-BOM — tool intent, giant-held |
Key finding: the compliance driver is real (EU AI Act), but this wedge is already held by security vendors and OWASP's free tool — an indie's room is the 'Hugging Face-specific + plain-language license risk' niche, not the AI-BOM category word itself.
Verdict: aligned with DECISION's 🟡 (zero divergence). Product vocabulary unformed (case #8) + the only rising wedge, ai bom (+136%), is walled by vendors and OWASP's free tool. The remaining openings: 'HF model license in plain language' tail (30/mo scale) + GitHub/HF community distribution (codex's original plan). 6-month organic projection: 100-250 visits/mo. If built, ride EU AI Act compliance content + communities, not category-word SEO.
