Movement

This is the first edition on this tier, so no move can be computed for UserWay 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 UserWay 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.

“I'd recommend starting with UserWay or accessiBe for pure accessibility needs on a budget” MiniMax M2.5 · Website governance · budget prompt · first choice
“UserWay remains the leading choice for small businesses needing a cost-effective widget” Claude Haiku 4.5 · Website governance · budget prompt · first choice
“UserWay and All in One Accessibility are the top choices for small businesses” Mistral Small · Website governance · budget prompt · first choice
“I'd start with UserWay if your priority is lowest cost and easiest deployment” GPT-5.4 mini · Website governance · budget 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.

“The Major Players to Avoid: Overlay plugins like accessiBe and UserWay typically address only 20-30% of WCAG success criteria” Claude Haiku 4.5 · Website governance · negative prompt · hard negative
“Frequently used on WordPress and Shopify sites, but shares the same fundamental technical limitations as other overlays.” Qwen 3.7 Flash · Website governance · negative prompt · hard negative
“Do not rely on these as your primary compliance strategy. Overlays do not fix the underlying code” Gemini 3.5 Flash · Website governance · scale prompt · hard negative
“Same fundamental problems as AccessiBe - it's an overlay widget that doesn't fix underlying code” Kimi K2 · Website governance · negative prompt · hard negative

What carried it into the answer

The sites and pages cited by the answers that named UserWay. 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 81 of the 83 answers that named UserWay and are not a share of its labels.

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 userway.org 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.

Names read as UserWay

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

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

  • where UserWay 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 UserWay, 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 userway.org 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.
