What the models said for it

Verbatim evidence the judge attached to positive labels.

“Look for tools with strong machine learning engines, real-time blocking, and transparent reporting, such as Lunio, TrafficGuard, CHEQ, DataDome, Anura, or ClickCease.” Mistral Small · Click fraud protection · negative prompt · first choice
“Lunio is highly regarded for mid-market/enterprise marketing teams. It focuses heavily on maximizing ad efficiency and cleaning up smart bidding signals.” Gemini 3.5 Flash · Click fraud protection · scale prompt · first choice
“The four tools most consistently recommended for enterprise advertisers are Lunio, CHEQ, DataDome, and Anura” DeepSeek V4 Flash · Click fraud protection · scale prompt · first choice
“Lunio appears to be the most frequently recommended choice due to its specialized focus on high-CPC B2B environments” Claude Haiku 4.5 · Click fraud protection · 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.

“Percentage-of-ad-spend pricing — the more your campaigns grow, the more you pay, which becomes increasingly expensive at scale.” DeepSeek V4 Flash · Click fraud protection · negative prompt · soft negative
“typically aimed at growing brands rather than the cheapest option | Better if budget is flexible” Perplexity Sonar · Click fraud protection · budget prompt · soft negative
“certain enterprise-focused tools like Lunio may not be cost-effective for you” Claude Haiku 4.5 · Click fraud protection · budget prompt · soft negative

Search figures are US estimates from DataForSEO, read October 5, 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.

How it is countedHide how it is counted

Every page lunio.ai 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 October 5, 2026.

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

  • where Lunio 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 Lunio, 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.

A verification link goes to your work email; an address at lunio.ai 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.
