When buyers ask ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini about email marketing, MailerLite ranks #3 of 15, a Visibility Score of 43 in Email Marketing (and appears in 3 categories of the index).
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.

Where it wins. In Email Marketing, MailerLite lands rank 3 of 15 with a 53% mention rate, putting it reliably in the conversation alongside Mailchimp and Brevo whenever buyers ask for general recommendations.
Where it loses. Publishing and Newsletters tells a different story: a 1.4% first-pick rate and a rank of 10 signal that AI models reach for Ghost or Beehiiv long before MailerLite when the category gets specific, and the brand is absent from five of the core prompt themes including Best overall and Use-case fit.
