Citations exist only for the models that return a source list, five of the fourteen in this edition, so these counts come from 58 of the 59 answers that named PolyAI and are not a share of its labels.
203 of the 217 domain citations in answers naming PolyAI came from somebody else's page.
Pages are listed as the models cited them.
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.

As the event pages on poly.ai state them, read October 5, 2026.
Every page poly.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.

What PolyAI's own pages state, read October 5, 2026: poly.ai, poly.ai/pricing, poly.ai/security, poly.ai/platform/dialog-rsn-1, poly.ai/customers. A claimed page can correct any of them.
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 PolyAI'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 PolyAI, 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 PolyAI by email, built from the raw record of the edition. It shows:
