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.

Verbatim evidence the judge attached to positive labels.
“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

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.
“MediaMath, once a viable agency option, filed for Chapter 11 in 2023 and now runs at a much smaller scale under Infillion.” Muse Glimmer 30B · Programmatic · comparative prompt · hard negative
“Don't build a media plan around it, as it's defunct as an independent platform.” Claude Haiku 4.5 · Programmatic · negative prompt · hard negative
“Had a bankruptcy and relaunch in 2023 — brand stability is a consideration; smaller market presence today” DeepSeek V4 Flash · Programmatic · comparative prompt · soft negative
“Mid-tier DSPs (e.g., StackAdapt, MediaMath) ... still high for very limited budgets.” GLM 4.7 FlashX · Programmatic · budget prompt · soft negative
Citations exist only for the models that return a source list, five of the fourteen in this edition, so these counts come from 29 of the 31 answers that named MediaMath and are not a share of its labels.
No domain is on file for MediaMath, so its own site is not marked.
Pages are listed as the models cited them.
Search figures are US estimates from DataForSEO, read September 28, 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.
An email the morning each edition publishes: where this product moved, where it held, and by how much against the noise floor. One address, confirmed by a click; a stop link in every email.

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 MediaMath'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 MediaMath, applied by version and listed in the change log; and a one-line description supplied by the vendor and marked as such.
A new claim receives the current edition's vendor brief for MediaMath by email, built from the raw record of the edition. It shows:
