Shares here are read over the models both editions asked, so they can differ by a point or two from the standing above, which counts every model in this edition.

The floor is 11 points of share, measured: how far the models move a leader on their own when the same questions are asked twice with nothing changed. A larger change is movement; a smaller one is noise, and both are shown. Movement is read over the twelve models both editions asked; GPT-6 Luna, Muse Glimmer 30B joined this edition and are in the standing but not yet in the comparison.

What the models said for it

Verbatim evidence the judge attached to positive labels.

“the best choice is usually 6sense if your main goal is account-level audience insights for ABM, intent detection, and pipeline acceleration” GPT-5.4 mini · Audience insights · direct prompt · first choice
“6sense is described as "the enterprise standard for ABM orchestration"... Choose 6sense for predictive, intent-first enterprise RevOps.” Muse Glimmer 30B · ABM · comparative prompt · first choice
“e.g., demandbase, Terminus, 6sense, or Rollworks depending on whether you prefer paid social or display ads” Qwen 3.7 Flash · ABM · scale prompt · first choice
“If you want a single recommendation, 6sense is the strongest default pick for a mid-market B2B company” Perplexity Sonar · Intent data · direct prompt · first choice

And against it

Verbatim evidence attached to negative labels. A warning on a product with few labels is a warning; on a product with many, it is one voice among them.

“Avoid enterprise-heavy tools like 6sense or Outreach for pure door-to-door sales motions — they add complexity without field-relevant value.” Claude Haiku 4.5 · Field sales · negative prompt · hard negative
“the absolute worst thing you can do is sign an annual contract with enterprise-grade giants like 6sense or Demandbase” Gemini 3.5 Flash · ABM · budget prompt · hard negative
“Enterprise platforms like 6sense and Demandbase cost $45K–$100K+ annually... For limited budgets, these are overkill.” Kimi K2 · ABM · budget prompt · hard negative
“Verdict: Avoid if you need quick wins, have modest budgets, or don't have a dedicated operations team” DeepSeek V4 Flash · ABM · negative prompt · hard negative

What carried it into the answer

The sites and pages cited by the answers that named 6sense. A fact about retrieval, not a lever on the model.

Citations exist only for the models that return a source list, five of the fourteen in this edition, so these counts come from 684 of the 711 answers that named 6sense and are not a share of its labels.

How it is countedHide how it is counted

Every page 6sense.com exposes, subdomains included. Kind is read from the address and title. The last 90 days, the latest date and the twelve months count pages by when they were published, from the site's feeds, a date in the address, or the page's own publication date, read from up to a hundred of its most recently changed pages; a page that says only when it last changed is counted in its kind but not in when, so the recent counts are a floor, and a kind none of whose pages gives a publication date reads undated. An event counts as online when its address or title says so (webinar, on demand, virtual or online summit); a conference, summit, trade show, expo or roadshow that does not say so is counted as a conference or event, which on a vendor's site is mostly in person. Read September 29, 2026.

Is this your product?

Claim this page

Claiming is free and changes nothing in the data. A claimed page shows a verified contact who is told when each edition publishes and when 6sense's standing changes by more than the noise floor; the right to propose corrections to the vendor table, meaning names the judge wrote that should or should not read as 6sense, applied by version and listed in the change log; and a one-line description supplied by the vendor and marked as such.

What a new claim receivesHide what a new claim receives

A new claim receives the current edition's vendor brief for 6sense by email, built from the raw record of the edition. It shows:

  • where 6sense is named, by buyer and by framing, and which cells hold its first choices;
  • the claims the models make when they name it, ranked, with the strongest and the weakest quoted;
  • its vocabulary against the segment leader's, and the pages the models cited;
  • who was chosen in the answers that did not name 6sense, and every reason the record gives;
  • a battlecard for each top rival: the head-to-head split, why they win, and the reservation quoted against them;
  • one page of published figures cleared to show a buyer.
The subscriber app

A verification link goes to your work email; an address at 6sense.com is approved on the spot, any other is reviewed by hand. Your email is never published. Claiming gives no say over labels, shares, verdicts or which quotes appear.
