Product Analytics: AI Visibility Ranking

Tools for understanding user behavior, funnels, retention, and feature adoption. Right now, Mixpanel is the brand AI assistants recommend most, with a Visibility Score of 83 and the #1 spot in 29% of answers. Head-to-head: Mixpanel vs PostHog →

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.

Three brands own the category; two are barely present.

Mixpanel, PostHog, and Amplitude cluster tightly at the top, each mentioned in 87% or more of answers and trading the first-pick spot among themselves, with Amplitude actually leading on first picks at 36%. Below that tier, Heap and FullStory fall off a cliff, scoring 37 and 25 respectively and never earning a first recommendation across all 72 answers. The interesting subplot is model disagreement: ChatGPT favors Amplitude while Claude and Gemini both lean toward Mixpanel or PostHog, meaning a brand's visibility depends partly on which AI a buyer happens to use.

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: Pendo (6.3), Microsoft Clarity (6.3), Hex (5.1), BigQuery (4.6), Mode (4.2). 51 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.

Openness 17/100: the share of this category's recommendation weight not held by the leader.
