What the numbers mean
"Named in 5 of 6" means the brand appeared in five of the six answers we collected for that category. It is a share of answers, not a ranking. ChatGPT changes its answer each time, so we ask more than once. Read how we measure.
Across all categories, the same question asked twice kept about 71% of its brands and 57% of its cited sites. Brands are steadier than sources.
