Warehouse Management (WMS): AI Visibility Ranking

Warehouse and fulfillment management systems for brands and 3PLs. Right now, Manhattan Associates is the brand AI assistants recommend most, with a Visibility Score of 62 and the #1 spot in 38% of answers. Head-to-head: Manhattan Associates vs SAP EWM →

These rankings are measured from what the three models know from training, not a live web search. When the models DO search the web, see which sources they cite. Methodology.

Four points separate the WMS pack; nothing is settled.

Manhattan Associates leads at 40.8 but Extensiv actually shows up in more answers, 58% versus 50%, meaning the top slot is built on first-pick rate rather than raw presence. ShipHero and Logiwa are almost invisible to ChatGPT yet dominate Gemini, suggesting model-specific authority rather than broad recognition. Any shift in how Gemini weights its recommendations could reshuffle this ranking fast.

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: Linnworks (8.1), Cin7 (7.9), inFlow Inventory (7.5), Infoplus (6.9), NetSuite WMS (6.7). 63 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 38/100: the share of this category's recommendation weight not held by the leader.
