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.

“Prioritize platforms that balance high-quality intent data with easy-to-use orchestration (e.g., demandbase, Terminus, 6sense, or Rollworks” Qwen 3.7 Flash · ABM · scale prompt · first choice
“Demandbase is the only DSP built for B2B from the ground up... making it an excellent choice if you want account-based marketing features.” Claude Haiku 4.5 · Retail media · direct prompt · first choice
“boasts one of the strongest native Demand-Side Platforms (DSP) for B2B advertising... highly regarded for its buying group mapping” Gemini 3.5 Flash · ABM · comparative prompt · first choice
“Most comprehensive platform: Combines first-party and third-party data with AI-driven insights into a unified account view” Kimi K2 · ABM · comparative 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.

“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
“Expensive (opaque pricing, often $60K+/year minimum), heavy implementation (3-6 months), and confusing for mid-market teams.” Grok 4.1 Fast · ABM · negative prompt · hard negative
“should avoid 6sense and Demandbase because costs of $15K–$25K/year and complexity rarely pay off” Claude Haiku 4.5 · ABM · paraphrase prompt · hard negative
“Enterprise platforms like 6sense and Demandbase cost $45K–$100K+ annually ... these are overkill” Kimi K2 · ABM · budget prompt · hard negative

What carried it into the answer

The sites and pages cited by the answers that named Demandbase. 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 672 of the 692 answers that named Demandbase and are not a share of its labels.

As the event pages on demandbase.com state them, read September 28, 2026.

How it is countedHide how it is counted

Every page demandbase.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 Demandbase'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 Demandbase, 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 Demandbase by email, built from the raw record of the edition. It shows:

  • where Demandbase 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 Demandbase, 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 demandbase.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.
