Your title tag and meta description are the first thing both search engines and AI assistants see when deciding how to represent your page — whether as a blue link in Google, or as a quoted snippet in an AI-generated answer. Get them too long and they truncate; get them vague and neither humans nor AI systems have much reason to click or cite.

Why it matters for AI search: many AI assistants use your meta description (or a close paraphrase of it) as the basis for how they summarize your page in a citation. A description that's actually a complete, accurate sentence — not marketing fluff — is more likely to be quoted usefully. Meanwhile, your title still matters for traditional Google results and increasingly for how AI Overviews attribute sources.

How this tool works: type your URL, title, and description, and get a live Google-style SERP preview alongside pixel-width and character counters — measured against the actual widths Google uses for truncation (roughly 580px for titles, 920px for descriptions), not just a rough character count. A second panel shows an illustrative "AI-answer snippet preview" of how your description might be quoted in a conversational AI citation.

Limitations: Google's actual truncation behavior varies by device, font rendering, and ongoing algorithm changes, so treat the pixel-width thresholds here as a close approximation, not an exact guarantee. Google also frequently rewrites titles and descriptions in search results regardless of what you set — this tool shows what you're asking for, not what Google will necessarily display. The AI-answer snippet preview is illustrative only; no AI platform's citation format is replicated exactly.

Frequently asked questions

Why pixel width instead of just character count?

Google truncates titles and descriptions based on rendered pixel width, not character count — since letters like 'i' and 'm' take up very different space, two titles with the same character count can truncate differently. Pixel width is the more accurate signal.

What's a safe title length?

Roughly under 580px (about 50-60 characters depending on which letters you use) keeps most titles from truncating in Google's desktop search results.

What's a safe description length?

Roughly under 920px (about 150-160 characters) for the description, though Google sometimes rewrites descriptions entirely regardless of what you set.

What is the 'AI-answer snippet preview' showing?

A simplified illustration of how an AI assistant might quote your description when citing your page in a conversational answer. It's illustrative, not a guarantee of how any specific AI product will actually format a citation.

Does a well-optimized title/description improve AI citations?

A clear, specific, non-clickbait description that accurately summarizes the page content is more likely to be usable verbatim by an AI system, similar to how it improves click-through in traditional search results.
