How this is measured

Every day we ask ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini the same fixed buyer questions about applicant tracking systems, such as “What is the best applicant tracking system for a small company? Name specific products.”, and record which brands each answer names. A brand counts once per answer. No brand pays to appear, and answers are not edited. The method and every question are on the applicant tracking systems page.
