Bullhorn vs Loxo

Bullhorn dominates broadly; Loxo owns the startup question. Bullhorn's lead is not close: named in 63% of answers versus 35% for Loxo, and first-picked 56% of the time compared to just 6%. All three models favor Bullhorn, but the gap is starkest on ChatGPT and Claude, where Loxo scores under 20 against Bullhorn's mid-to-high 50s and 60s. Gemini is the one model where Loxo becomes credible, scoring 43, and that Gemini preference likely underpins the single question theme Loxo wins outright: the startup and small team context.
