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.

What the models said for it

Verbatim evidence the judge attached to positive labels.

“For a limited budget, Attaxion is the strongest single pick from the results because it is described as the most affordable platform” Perplexity Sonar · ASM · budget prompt · first choice

“If you want the most affordable full-featured continuous platform, Attaxion is the one most reviewers highlight for budget-conscious teams” Muse Glimmer 30B · ASM · budget prompt · first choice

“Attaxion stands out as the best budget-friendly attack surface management (ASM) platform for companies with limited resources” Mistral Small · ASM · budget prompt · first choice

“For a company with a very limited budget, Attaxion appears to be the best choice due to its low entry point of $129/month” Claude Haiku 4.5 · ASM · 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.

“cited as a capable but "quite young" platform that hasn't yet amassed a deep track record” DeepSeek V4 Flash · ASM · negative prompt · soft negative

What carried it into the answer

The sites and pages cited by the answers that named Attaxion. 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 46 of the 46 answers that named Attaxion and are not a share of its labels.

How it is countedHide how it is counted

Every page attaxion.com 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. Read September 29, 2026.

Is this your product?

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

where Attaxion 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 Attaxion, 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.

Badges

Wins only: a badge exists where Attaxion is ranked in a category's top three this edition. Three sizes, one file each, light and dark; the code is under each.

Attaxion is among the products AI models recommend first in Attack surface management this edition. Each badge says so in the buyer's words, names the edition, and links to the standing. The next edition issues a new badge; this one stays true as a record of October 2026.
