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.

“Choose Display & Video 360 if you need more advanced programmatic buying, richer audience targeting, and more control across CTV and premium video.” GPT-5.4 mini · Video ads · paraphrase prompt · first choice
“Industry standards like Google DV360, The Trade Desk, and Amazon DSP are generally considered to offer better safety controls” MiniMax M2.5 · Programmatic · negative prompt · first choice
“Prioritize platforms like Google DV360, The Trade Desk, MediaMath, or Amazon DSP, but test via demos or pilots.” Grok 4.20 · Programmatic · scale prompt · first choice
“If you prioritize Google's ecosystem ... DV360 is often the best choice.” GLM 4.7 FlashX · Programmatic · 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.

“($35K–$50K+/month, no self-serve) ... have high thresholds, complex contracts ... aren't practical for small budgets” Grok 4.20 · Programmatic · budget prompt · hard negative
“What I'd Avoid for Mid-Sized B2B: ... $50K+/month minimum, complex, overkill for mid-market” Kimi K2 · Programmatic · paraphrase prompt · hard negative
“The Caution: In a major 2025 report by Adalytics, it was found that programmatic ads from major advertisers were served on a website hosting child sexual abuse material” GLM 4.7 FlashX · Programmatic · negative prompt · soft negative
“Enterprise options like The Trade Desk or Google DV360 often require high minimum spends ($25K+/month) and dedicated teams, which can overwhelm mid-sized operations.” Grok 4.20 · Programmatic · paraphrase prompt · soft negative
