35% of first choices, contested.
The floor is 11 points of share, measured: how far the models move a leader on their own when the same questions are asked twice with nothing changed. A larger change is movement; a smaller one can't be told apart from repeat variation, and both are shown. Each index measures its own floor from its own repeat, over its own categories, so the floor differs from one index to the next. Both editions asked the same fourteen models. How the floor is measured
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%.
“Platforms to Avoid (High-Risk / Frequently Complained About) ... Outbrain ... Trustpilot rating: 1.2/5” DeepSeek V4 Flash, negative prompt
“Avoid starting with Taboola or premium managed platforms unless you can commit several hundred to a few thousand dollars for testing.” Perplexity Sonar, budget prompt
“native advertising platforms like Revcontent, MGID, and similar mid-tier content recommendation networks often warrant caution or avoidance” Grok 4.20, negative prompt
“Some platforms, such as Revcontent and MGID, are mentioned as being potentially problematic due to issues with traffic quality and user experience.” Llama 4 Maverick, negative prompt
68 of 84 answers in this category came back with a source list, from 14 of 14 models: citations where the model returns them, or the search results it consulted. 764 links across 192 sites, every framing counted. Ranked by the number of answers carrying the site or page. 62 of the 252 answers across every segment cited this index's own page for the category; the method page measures whether that reading tilts an answer.
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.
