Gitea: AI Visibility Report
When buyers ask ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini about code hosting & collaboration, Gitea ranks #5 of 15, a Visibility Score of 11 in Code Hosting & Collaboration .
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.
Budget-query survivor, stuck at rank 5 in its only arena.
Where it wins. Gitea earns a 13.9% mention rate in Code Hosting and Collaboration, which is enough to place fifth among 15 competitors. Its foothold is real, even if narrow, built almost entirely on price-sensitive searches where buyers hunt for cheaper GitHub alternatives.
Where it loses. A 2.8% first-pick rate reveals that the AIs rarely hand Gitea the top recommendation slot even when it does appear, and it drops out completely from use-case, enterprise, feature, and startup prompt themes, meaning most purchasing conversations never surface it at all.
AI-generated analysis of the September 2026 measurements.
Gitea claims Code Hosting & Collaboration and the models back it: #6 of 15 there.
