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.

Verbatim evidence the judge attached to positive labels.
“I'd start with ChurnZero. It's usually the best balance of speed, usability, and core retention functionality for mid-market teams.” GPT-5.4 mini · Customer success · paraphrase prompt · first choice
“ChurnZero is the common first choice for health scoring, real-time usage-based risk alerts and automated retention playbooks” Muse Glimmer 30B · Customer success · paraphrase prompt · first choice
“ChurnZero – the strongest mid-market generalist. Repeatedly called out as the strongest mid-market option in the category.” Muse Glimmer 30B · Customer success · direct prompt · first choice
“ChurnZero is the strongest "all-rounder" for mid-market companies that rely heavily on Salesforce or HubSpot.” GLM 4.7 FlashX · Customer success · direct prompt · first choice
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 platforms like Gainsight or ChurnZero initially” Kimi K2 · Customer success · budget prompt · hard negative
“Pricing Escalation... Declining Support Quality... Clunky UI” Kimi K2 · Customer success · negative prompt · hard negative
“Heavyweight, enterprise onboarding tools (like GUIDEcx, Rocketlane, or ChurnZero) are excellent but often cost hundreds or thousands of dollars a month.” Gemini 3.5 Flash · Client onboarding · budget prompt · soft negative
“Don't assume it will be plug-and-play... admins handling implementation, data, and advanced features may need extra time” GPT-6 Luna · Customer success · negative prompt · soft negative
Citations exist only for the models that return a source list, five of the fourteen in this edition, so these counts come from 221 of the 227 answers that named ChurnZero and are not a share of its labels.
654 of the 654 domain citations in answers naming ChurnZero came from somebody else's page.
Pages are listed as the models cited them.
Search figures are US estimates from DataForSEO, read September 28, 2026; AI search demand is its modeled, directional estimate, not a count of queries to any assistant. The answers are this edition's. Two measurements side by side: neither is read as the cause of the other.

Every page churnzero.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.

An email the morning each edition publishes: where this product moved, where it held, and by how much against the noise floor. One address, confirmed by a click; a stop link in every email.

What ChurnZero's own pages state, read September 28, 2026: churnzero.com, churnzero.com/security, churnzero.com/features, churnzero.com/case-studies, churnzero.com/integrations. A claimed page can correct any of them.
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 ChurnZero'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 ChurnZero, applied by version and listed in the change log; and a one-line description supplied by the vendor and marked as such.
A new claim receives the current edition's vendor brief for ChurnZero by email, built from the raw record of the edition. It shows:
AI models recommend ChurnZero first in Customer success platforms this edition. Each badge says so in the buyer's words, names the edition, and links to the standing. The next edition issues a new badge; this one stays true as a record of October 2026.
Badges read on light and dark pages. Alt text carries the claim, the category, the edition and the index, so it stays a citation where the image does not load.
