Industry reports

Which brands ChatGPT, Gemini and Claude actually recommend across a category's buying situations, who they ignore, and which websites feed their answers. Every report uses our public methodology and a design frozen and hashed before measurement, so nobody can pick the numbers after seeing them.

Email marketing platforms
Mailchimp: recommended everywhere, preferred nowhere

No brand owns the category. Klaviyo owns e-commerce, Kit and Beehiiv own creators, MailerLite and Brevo own budget buyers, and the answers are fed by affiliate review sites rather than the vendors.

Global HR and payroll
Three young companies take half of all recommendations

Deel, Rippling and Remote lead seven of eight situations. Workday exists in one. Personio, Europe's HR champion, appears in 1 percent of answers. Our most stable measurement so far, r=0.99.

CRM software
The machines crowned HubSpot, not Salesforce

Microsoft Dynamics is invisible outside enterprise, and Monday.com shows that search visibility can be rented while a place in the machines' memory has to be earned.

How to read them

A report
A public study of a whole category, every brand, free to read. It shows how we measure and what the machines think of an industry.
An audit
The paid product: the same measurement built around one brand, with the false claims AI makes about it, its citation map and a prioritized fix list. See the Monday.com sample audit.
Memory and search
Every number comes in two modes: what the models know without looking anything up, and what they find when they search the web. The gap between them is a finding.
