Betterworks Betterworks: AI Visibility Report

betterworks.com ↗

When buyers ask ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini about performance management, Betterworks ranks #6 of 15, a Visibility Score of 27 in Performance Management .

These rankings are measured from what the three models know from training, not a live web search. The live-web grounded surface is rolling out across the index. Methodology.

How AI sees Betterworks

One category, one race, stuck in the middle of it.

Where it wins. Betterworks lands in half of all performance management conversations AI models generate for buyers, a 50% mention rate that keeps it on the shortlist alongside Lattice and Workday.

Where it loses. Rank 6 of 15 and zero first-pick selections mean the models consistently hand the top recommendation to someone else, and Betterworks gets no traction at all with startup or budget-minded queries where a different slice of that same category is being decided.
