udm=14 is a Google Search URL parameter that loads the Web results view: plain web links with no AI Overview and no extra modules. udm stands for the results mode; 14 is the Web filter.

What are the other udm values?

Common ones include udm=2 (Images), udm=7 (Videos), udm=12 (News), udm=18 (Forums), and udm=14 (Web). The exact set changes over time, but udm=14 reliably maps to Web-only results.

How do I make Google always use udm=14?

Either set a custom search engine with the URL https://www.google.com/search?q=%s&udm=14, or install a free extension like VanishAI that adds it to every search automatically, including links clicked from other sites.

What Is udm=14? Google Web Results Only

If you have seen people share a "secret" Google link that shows plain results with no AI Overview, that is udm=14. Here is what the parameter actually does, the other udm values, and how to make every search use it automatically.

What udm=14 means

udm is the parameter Google uses to choose which results "mode" to show. The value 14 is the Web filter: classic web links, no AI Overview, no generative summary, no extra modules. Adding &udm=14 to a Google search URL gives you a clean, fast results page.

udm=14Web, plain links, no AI Overview

udm=2Images

udm=7Videos

udm=12News

udm=18Forums

The exact list shifts over time as Google adds modes, but udm=14 has reliably meant Web-only results.

Why people use it

No AI Overview: the generative summary box is gone, so real links are at the top.
Faster: the page skips the slow AI generation step.
Less clutter: no shopping, knowledge, or "people also ask" modules crowding the results.

How to use it on every search

You can add &udm=14 by hand, but that gets old fast. Two better options:

Custom search engine In your browser settings, add a search engine with https://www.google.com/search?q=%s&udm=14 and set it as default. Address-bar searches then load Web results, but links you click elsewhere still bypass it.
VanishAI (covers everything) Install the free VanishAI extension. It adds udm=14 to every Google search automatically, including searches you reach from other sites, and you can toggle it off anytime.

Why not a CSS "AI hider"? Extensions that hide the AI Overview with styling break whenever Google changes class names. udm=14 uses Google's own filter, so it stays stable.

Frequently asked questions

Does udm=14 still work?

Yes. It is Google's own Web-results parameter, so it is stable and does not depend on page layout.

Will it remove Images or Maps?

No. udm=14 only applies to the search you add it to. Image, Video, and Map searches work normally, and VanishAI leaves them alone.

Is VanishAI free?

Yes, free and private. It runs locally, collects no data, and never reads page content.
