Limitations

  • This is one response per prompt/provider pair in each run; model output can vary between runs.
  • The fixed 16-prompt Design & Creative category does not estimate general market share or brand awareness.
  • Presence share and citation share are relative only to the reviewed 12-brand universe; untracked brands are excluded from those denominators.
  • OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google are both evaluated brands and configured model providers; no self-provider bias correction is applied.
