Standing by category

Every category where a model named HubSpot for a mid-market B2B company. Share is first choices across the direct, paraphrase, budget and scale prompts; rank is within every product named in that category.

Movement

This is the first edition on this tier, so no move can be computed for HubSpot yet. From the next edition this section shows, per buyer segment and per category, whether its share moved by more than the measured noise floor.

By model

How each model treated HubSpot across every prompt where it was named for a mid-market B2B company. Fourteen models, six prompts per category.

What the models said for it

Verbatim evidence the judge attached to positive labels.

“For most budget-conscious small companies, I'd start with HubSpot's free CRM and Breeze AI tools.” GPT-6 Luna · AI marketing agents · budget prompt · first choice
“the best starting point is HubSpot Free / Mailchimp Free and Brevo's free $9/mo tier” Muse Glimmer 30B · AI marketing agents · budget prompt · first choice
“Best value for a company on a tight budget: HubSpot’s free mobile app and CRM” GPT-6 Luna · Event lead capture · budget prompt · first choice
“the strongest single pick is usually HubSpot” GPT-5.4 mini · AI marketing agents · direct 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.

“basic CRMs (e.g., HubSpot alone) for client onboarding—they lack native client portals” Grok 4.1 Fast · Client onboarding · negative prompt · hard negative
“Avoid Hacking a Standard CRM (e.g., HubSpot or Vanilla Salesforce) to act as a PRM” Gemini 3.5 Flash · PRM · negative prompt · hard negative
“offer broader customer communication and product marketing suites, but may require more setup and investment” Mistral Small · In-app messaging · paraphrase prompt · soft negative
“One founder spent $30,000 in a month on an "AI marketing team" (Jasper, HubSpot, Canva, ChatGPT Enterprise)” Kimi K2 · AI marketing agents · negative prompt · soft negative

What carried it into the answer

The sites and pages cited by the answers that named HubSpot. 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 132 of the 162 answers that named HubSpot and are not a share of its labels.

Most recent

How it is countedHide how it is counted

Every page hubspot.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.

Names read as HubSpot

What the judge wrote, as written, with how often. The vendor table decides that these count as HubSpot; a claim can dispute any of them.

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 HubSpot'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 HubSpot, 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 HubSpot by email, built from the raw record of the edition. It shows:

  • where HubSpot 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 HubSpot, 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 hubspot.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.

HubSpot is among the products AI models recommend first in AI marketing agents 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.
