A side-by-side page exists where both products are among a category's top eight.
Fourteen AI models from 12 labs are asked the same buying questions six ways, for three company sizes. Standings refresh every edition.
Gane sells AI visibility software. No company can pay to change a result.
Read the method →Fourteen of the fourteen models returned a source list in this edition: five return the pages they cited and nine the search results they consulted. These counts come from 4 of the 5 answers that named SMS and are not a share of its labels.
No domain is on file for SMS, so its own site is not marked. Three were to the publisher's own pages (the Gane Index), which the models cite like any other source; they are not counted as a third party.
Pages are listed as the models cited them.
