Movement

This is the first edition on this tier, so no move can be computed for NetNut 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 NetNut 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.

“Best if you want a strong alternative with broad adoption: Decodo or NetNut” GPT-5.4 mini · Proxy and web data · direct prompt · alternative

“Need static/residential IPs for login‑sensitive tasks | NetNut (static ISP)” MiniMax M2.5 · Proxy and web data · comparative prompt · alternative

“Best for Long, Stable Sessions (CRM integrations & Account Research): NetNut” Gemini 3.5 Flash · Proxy and web data · direct prompt · alternative

“Excellent speed via ISP-grade connections; strong presence in the mid-market” DeepSeek V4 Flash · Proxy and web data · comparative prompt · alternative

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.

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 NetNut. 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 47 of the 52 answers that named NetNut and are not a share of its labels.

Search figures are US estimates from DataForSEO, read October 5, 2026; AI search demand is its modeled, directional estimate, not a count of queries to any assistant. The answers are this edition's. Two measurements side by side: neither is read as the cause of the other.

Names read as NetNut

What the judge wrote, as written, with how often. The vendor table decides that these count as NetNut; a claim can dispute any of them.

Follow NetNut

An email the morning each edition publishes: where this product moved, where it held, and by how much against the noise floor. One address, confirmed by a click; a stop link in every email.

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

where NetNut 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 NetNut, 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.
