Performance Management: AI Visibility Ranking

Platforms for performance reviews, goals and OKRs, 1:1s, and feedback cycles. Right now, Lattice is the brand AI assistants recommend most, with a Visibility Score of 89 and the #1 spot in 75% of answers. Head-to-head: Lattice vs 15Five →

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.

Lattice owns this category; everyone else competes for scraps.

Lattice is the default answer across all three models, appearing in 96% of responses and taking the first-pick slot 75% of the time. 15Five holds a distant but real second place with 90% mention rate, while Leapsome, Workday, and Culture Amp cluster tightly between scores of 40 and 44, separated by almost nothing meaningful. The only structural oddity is Workday grabbing 18% of first picks despite a lower overall score than Leapsome, suggesting the models occasionally treat it as the enterprise default when the question frames shift.

The ± under each score is the reliability band: how much the number would move if we re-ran the identical measurement. It is tight because each prompt is sampled multiple times. It is not the same as how much the ranking depends on which prompts we ask — a separate, wider figure shown on hover.

Just below the cutoff: Oracle HCM Cloud (4.4), Microsoft Viva Goals (4.2), Trakstar (4), Profit.co (3.6), Notion (3.5). 48 brands were scored in this category; the leaderboard shows the top 15.

Visibility Score: position-weighted presence across all measured answers, 0 to 100. A score of 100 means the brand was the first recommendation in every answer. Every point in a trend line is a live monthly measurement; there is no modeled or backfilled history. Full methodology.
