Zero of twelve models named eSpatial first on the direct prompt; zero named Maptive. eSpatial was named by eleven of the twelve models and Maptive by eleven and eSpatial carries 28 labels and Maptive 21, so the shares are not directly comparable.
Named in one category this edition.
Named in one category this edition.
Share is the count of first choices across the direct, paraphrase, budget and scale prompts over all twelve models, for a mid-market B2B company; rank is within the category; every quote names the model and the prompt it came from. Both figures come from the territory and quota planning page.
Across every category in the September 2026 Edition, eSpatial and Maptive were named in the same answer forty-eight times, of the 65 answers naming eSpatial and the 61 naming Maptive. In those answers Maptive took the first choice four times and eSpatial two.
