How AI sees Obsidian

Feature seekers find it; enterprise and budget buyers never do.

Where it wins. Obsidian lands rank 3 of 15 and a 45% mention rate when buyers ask feature-forward questions, which puts it in credible company alongside Notion and Confluence.

Where it loses. It has zero first-pick selections and is absent from both the enterprise and budget-and-alternatives prompt themes, meaning it rarely closes the sale when purchase intent is highest.
