Share is the count of first choices across the direct, paraphrase, budget and scale prompts over all fourteen models, for a mid-market B2B company; rank is within the category; every quote names the model and the prompt it came from. Both figures come from the embedded analytics page.

By framing

How many of the fourteen models made each the first choice, per way of asking, and how many argued against it.
