When buyers ask ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini about website builders, Sanity ranks #8 of 15, a Visibility Score of 13 in Website Builders .
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.
One category, one mid-table slot, no clear breakout.
Where it wins. Sanity holds a spot in Website Builders conversations, appearing in 15% of relevant AI recommendations, which keeps it inside the consideration set alongside Contentful and Webflow.
Where it loses. A rank of 8 out of 15 and a first-pick rate of only 5.6% signal that AI models reach for Sanity as a list-filler rather than a lead recommendation, and it registers across none of the six prompt themes that reflect how buyers actually frame a purchase decision.
