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.
“Absorb LMS and LearnUpon are generally the most recommended platforms for customer training.” Qwen 3.7 Flash · Customer education · paraphrase prompt · first choice
“A more general LMS option for organizations that want to support external learners” GPT-6 Luna · Customer education · comparative prompt · alternative
“If your goal is certifying a vast partner network, look at Absorb LMS.” Qwen 3.7 Flash · Customer education · direct prompt · alternative
“Lower-cost LMS with external portal capabilities → TalentLMS / Absorb LMS” Muse Glimmer 30B · Customer education · direct prompt · alternative
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.
“Absorb LMS if you need live, interactive, or cohort-based customer training, since it is described as better for polished self-paced learning.” Perplexity Sonar · Customer education · negative prompt · soft negative
“While strong internal training tools, users report they lack the specific features needed for *external* audiences” Qwen 3.7 Flash · Customer education · negative prompt · soft negative
“strong general LMS platforms but are not optimized for external customer-facing education” DeepSeek V4 Flash · Customer education · comparative prompt · soft negative
“Lighter-Weight Alternatives ... Less specialized for customer education” DeepSeek V4 Flash · Customer education · direct prompt · soft negative

What carried it into the answer
The sites and pages cited by the answers that named Absorb LMS. 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 54 of the 58 answers that named Absorb LMS and are not a share of its labels.

How it is countedHide how it is counted
Every page absorbai.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 Absorb LMS'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 Absorb LMS, 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 Absorb LMS by email, built from the raw record of the edition. It shows:
- where Absorb LMS 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 Absorb LMS, 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.
