Sources returned with these answers

The sites and pages the answers that named Elastic came back with. A fact about retrieval, not a cause of the answer.

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 10 of the 13 answers that named Elastic and are not a share of its labels.

By model

How each model answered on Elastic across every prompt where it was named for a mid-market B2B company. Fourteen models, six prompts per category.

Events in person

The twelve months before September 28, 2026

As the event pages on elastic.co state them, read September 28, 2026.

How it is countedHide how it is counted

Every page elastic.co exposes, subdomains included. Kind is read from the address and title. The last 90 days, the latest date and the twelve months count pages by when they were published, from the site's feeds, a date in the address, or the page's own publication date, read from up to a hundred of its most recently changed pages; a page that says only when it last changed is counted in its kind but not in when, so the recent counts are a floor, and a kind none of whose pages gives a publication date reads undated. Of its titles that name a category, most name APM (389); 0 name its categories the models place it in. An event counts as online when its address or title says so (webinar, on demand, virtual or online summit); a conference, summit, trade show, expo or roadshow that does not say so is counted as a conference or event, which on a vendor's site is mostly in person.
