When buyers ask ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini about website builders, Squarespace ranks #4 of 15, a Visibility Score of 50 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.
Fourth in website builders, and that is the whole story.
Where it wins. A 60% mention rate puts Squarespace in the conversation on nearly every website builder query, and its 'Best overall' prompt theme confirms the models read it as a credible generalist option in that category.
Where it loses. An 11% first-pick rate against 14 rivals means buyers hear the name but the models routinely hand the recommendation to someone else, and Squarespace never surfaces when buyers frame the question around use-case fit or enterprise needs.
