Vend: AI Visibility Report
When buyers ask ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini about retail pos & store management, Vend ranks #7 of 15, a Visibility Score of 5 in Retail POS & Store Management .
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.
Vend exists in one race and sits near the back.
Where it wins. Feature-led prompts are the one context where Vend earns a mention, and an 11% mention rate means it surfaces in roughly 1 in 9 conversations about retail POS software.
Where it loses. Ranked 10th of 15 in its only category with zero first-pick selections, Vend is crowded out by Lightspeed Retail and Shopify POS whenever buyers ask budget, startup, or enterprise-framing questions.
