Leaked internal schemas reveal NavBoost tracks far more than clicks: 137 schemas, 789 fields
VeryWellVersed · x · 2026-10-28
Building on the 2024 Google leak and the antitrust trial, RESONEO says it obtained internal Google schemas describing NavBoost and Glue in detail: 137 schemas, 789 fields, including 88 Glue structures (the 2024 leak documented just one).
The fields show Google remembers far more than clicks: on-screen dwell time and per-pixel exposure, ads above, clicks on results further down (clicksbelow), searches abandoned because the SERP answered itself (abandonedforwebanswers), query rewrites, next-page clicks, and scrolling back to reread the AI Overview. Of twelve highlighted fields, eleven are newly disclosed here.
Key takeaway: a click is never counted alone — it's read against what the searcher saw, skipped, and did afterwards; NavBoost keeps roughly thirteen months of history.
