Citations exist only for the models that return a source list, five of the fourteen in this edition, so these counts come from 60 of the 64 answers that named phpIPAM and are not a share of its labels.
235 of the 235 domain citations in answers naming phpIPAM came from somebody else's page.
Pages are listed as the models cited them.
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.

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.

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 phpIPAM'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 phpIPAM, applied by version and listed in the change log; and a one-line description supplied by the vendor and marked as such.
A new claim receives the current edition's vendor brief for phpIPAM by email, built from the raw record of the edition. It shows:
