What this does and does not show.

  • Counted from Claude’s 15 usable answers of 15 planned.
  • Products level on share of answers and average position share a rank: the measurement shows no difference between them.
  • Counted as one product under reviewed spellings: “Freshchat (Freddy AI)” as Freshchat; “Freshdesk Freddy AI” as Freshdesk; “Fin (by Intercom)” and “Fin (Intercom)” and “Intercom Fin” as Intercom; “Text (AI Agent)” as Text; “Tidio Lyro AI” and “Tidio with Lyro AI” as Tidio; “Zendesk AI” and “Zendesk Answer Bot” as Zendesk.
  • AI answers vary from run to run and with each person’s history and settings. This is what Claude answered on 9 October 2026, asked fresh each time, not what every user will see.
  • One engine and one month. Another engine, or next month, can name different products.
