15% of first choices, contested.
Google Forms is made by Google, whose model Gemini 3.5 Flash is in the set. On the four share prompts that model made it the first choice zero times of 4; the other eleven models eight times of 44. Lab treatment is defined on the method page; the row is marked, not excluded.
Every product with at least 10 labels here, on both axes. The 30% line names a quadrant, not the verdict above: that one needs more than 40%.
“Pricing complaints: Forced annual subscriptions, unclear pricing structure... Some reviewers call it a "scam"” MiniMax M2.5, negative prompt
“Major complaints: Extremely slow deployment (weeks or months), complex admin burden... Poor Trustpilot rating: ~1.2/5 with 67% one-star reviews” MiniMax M2.5, negative prompt
“it is recommended to avoid or be cautious about using Delighted and GetFeedback Direct” Llama 4 Maverick, negative prompt
“Built for global conglomerates. Avoid unless you have a massive CX budget and dedicated platform administrators.” DeepSeek V4 Flash, negative prompt
22 of 72 answers in this category came back with a source list, from 4 of 12 models: citations where the model returns them, or the search results it consulted. 288 links across 123 sites, every framing counted. Ranked by the number of answers carrying the site or page. The other 8 models searched through a gateway that returned no source list on this edition.
The ten pages named in the most answers, by full address. A page here is one the models returned with a recommendation, not one the index endorses.
