Paddle: AI Visibility Report
When buyers ask ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini about subscription billing, Paddle ranks #2 of 15, a Visibility Score of 64 in Subscription Billing .
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.
Paddle owns one room and almost tops it.
Where it wins. A 78% mention rate in Subscription Billing means the AI models call Paddle's name in nearly four of five relevant conversations. Sitting second of 15 in that field is a defensible position with real commercial weight.
Where it loses. First pick lands at only 19%, so Stripe or another rival is closing the recommendation ahead of Paddle in most sessions. The enterprise segment goes unrepresented entirely, leaving a meaningful buyer tier invisible to Paddle's AI presence.
AI-generated analysis of the September 2026 measurements.
Paddle claims Subscription Billing and the models back it: #2 of 15 there.
