Movement

This is the first edition on this tier, so no move can be computed for Govarna 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 Govarna across every prompt where it was named for a mid-market B2B company. Fourteen models, six prompts per category.

By framing

Which of the six questions produced the naming. By model says how often; this says asked what. The first-choice count on the right carries the marks of the models that produced it.

What the models said for it

Verbatim evidence the judge attached to positive labels.

“the strongest fit in your results is Govarna because it is explicitly described as a *self-serve AI governance platform tailored for mid-market B2B SaaS companies*” Perplexity Sonar · AI governance · direct prompt · first choice

“Govarna is frequently highlighted as the best AI governance platform specifically tailored for mid-market B2B SaaS companies” Mistral Small · AI governance · direct prompt · first choice

“Govarna appears to be the best fit due to its specific focus on this segment” MiniMax M2.5 · AI governance · direct prompt · first choice

“The best AI governance platform for a mid-market B2B company is Govarna” Llama 4 Maverick · AI governance · direct 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.

No model argued against it.

Named alongside

The products named in the same answers as Govarna, over the 7 answers that named it. Took the first choice instead counts the answers where the other product was the first choice and Govarna was named but was not.

A head-to-head page exists where both products are among a category's top eight. The other rows are the same fact without a page behind them, so they link to the product instead.

What carried it into the answer

The sites and pages cited by the answers that named Govarna. 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 7 of the 7 answers that named Govarna and are not a share of its labels.

How it is countedHide how it is counted

Every page govarna.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 October 5, 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 Govarna'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 Govarna, 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 Govarna by email, built from the raw record of the edition. It shows:

where Govarna 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 Govarna, 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 Govarna is ranked in a category's top three this edition. Three sizes, one file each, light and dark; the code is under each.

ShowHide

Govarna is among the products AI models recommend first in AI governance platforms 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.
