Recurly Recurly: AI Visibility Report

recurly.com ↗

When buyers ask ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini about subscription billing, Recurly ranks #6 of 15, a Visibility Score of 30 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.

How AI sees Recurly

One category, middle of the pack, zero first picks.

Where it wins. Recurly lands in 44% of subscription billing conversations, keeping it visible enough to stay in the consideration set across all three AI models.

Where it loses. A rank of 6 out of 15 in its only measured category means buyers see Recurly listed behind Stripe, Chargebee, and others before they ever weigh it seriously, and no prompt theme ever surfaces it as the opening recommendation.
