What the models said for it

Verbatim evidence the judge attached to positive labels.

“Start with Termly (free up to 10K visitors) or CookieYes (free up to 5K pageviews). Both offer excellent compliance features and easy setup.” Mistral Small · Consent · budget prompt · first choice
“CookieYes provides a simple, budget-friendly CMP for smaller businesses... offers a free plan, which is very practical for small businesses” Claude Haiku 4.5 · Consent · budget prompt · first choice
“CookieYes is widely considered the best value-for-money CMP ... Choose CookieYes if you want the safest compliance.” Qwen 3.7 Flash · Consent · budget prompt · first choice
“CookieYes is widely considered one of the easiest, most reliable free options for small businesses.” Gemini 3.5 Flash · Consent · budget 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.

“Termly / CookieYes — Fine for small businesses, but per-domain pricing and feature ceilings make them less cost-effective” DeepSeek V4 Flash · Consent · paraphrase prompt · hard negative
“basic plugins (like Termly or CookieYes) lack the multi-jurisdiction geo-targeting, automated workflows, and CRM integrations” Gemini 3.5 Flash · Consent · paraphrase prompt · soft negative
“CookieYes is described as a consent-only banner tool and not suited to enterprise governance requirements.[7]” Perplexity Sonar · Consent · negative prompt · soft negative
“Limited for multi-domain / enterprise features” DeepSeek V4 Flash · Consent · direct prompt · soft negative

What carried it into the answer

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

Citations exist only for the models that return a source list, four of the twelve in this edition, so these counts come from 20 of the 103 answers that named CookieYes and are not a share of its labels.

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 CookieYes'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 CookieYes, applied by version and listed in the change log; and a one-line description supplied by the vendor and marked as such.

It does not get any change to labels, shares or verdicts, any preview, or any say over which quotes appear. A verification link goes to your work email; an address at cookieyes.com is approved on the spot, any other address is reviewed by hand.

Your name and company appear on the claimed page, or the company alone if you ask below. A title and a LinkedIn address appear there too if you give them, and are left off if you do not. Your email address is never published.
