Movement

This is the first edition on this tier, so no move can be computed for Lumos yet. From the next edition this section shows, per buyer segment, whether its share moved by more than the measured noise floor.

By model

How each model treated Lumos across every prompt where it was named for a mid-market B2B company. Twelve models, six prompts per category.

What the models said for it

Verbatim evidence the judge attached to positive labels.

“modern, SaaS-first options like Lumos, Zluri, Linx, Opal Security, and Iden (AI-native, universal connectors, ~$5/user/month, built for your segment)” DeepSeek V4 Flash · IGA · scale prompt · first choice
“Lumos or Zluri currently represent the best balance of features, ease of deployment, and operational simplicity” MiniMax M2.5 · IGA · direct prompt · first choice
“Lumos – Best for mid-market companies focused on automating access requests and approvals across SaaS applications” Mistral Small · IGA · direct prompt · first choice
“Lumos — best overall for mid-market SaaS-heavy companies that want automated access requests/approvals” DeepSeek V4 Flash · IGA · 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.

What carried it into the answer

The sites and pages cited by the answers that named Lumos. A fact about retrieval, not a lever on the model.

Citations exist only for the models that return a source list, four of the twelve in this edition, so these counts come from 51 of the 63 answers that named Lumos and are not a share of its labels.

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 Lumos'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 Lumos, applied by version and listed in the change log; and a one-line description supplied by the vendor and marked as such.

It does not get any change to labels, shares or verdicts, any preview, or any say over which quotes appear. A verification link goes to your work email; an address at lumos.com is approved on the spot, any other address is reviewed by hand.

Your name and company appear on the claimed page, or the company alone if you ask below. A title and a LinkedIn address appear there too if you give them, and are left off if you do not. Your email address is never published.
