Lattice dominates this matchup with a 96% mention rate and a first-pick rate of 75%, against 15Five's 4%, and all three models rank Lattice ahead with no exception. The gap is widest on use-case fit and enterprise questions, where Lattice's average position of 2 when named reflects consistent top placement. 15Five's only structural foothold is budget and alternatives questions, which is a narrow but real wedge for buyers where price sensitivity drives the shortlist.
