METHOD

How this ranking is built

Questions

The questions are unbranded, in English and give no country, modelled on what people ask on forums, review sites and in the search box; the same set is asked every month.

Answers

Every answer in this measurement comes from Claude Opus 5.5, without web search. We record the brands each answer names, their order and the tone.

Limits

SI answers vary a little each time and the model's knowledge stops at a point in time, so current prices and campaigns may not show up.
