What the models said for it

Verbatim evidence the judge attached to positive labels.

“Best Overall Value for Small Teams: Sublime Security ... Go with Sublime Security (it's free and highly capable)” Gemini 3.5 Flash · Email security · budget prompt · first choice
“These are specifically designed to solve the false-positive and BEC detection failures of older vendors.” DeepSeek V4 Flash · Email security · negative prompt · first choice
“A modern, highly flexible platform using "detection-as-code," allowing your team to write custom rules if you have a hands-on IT/security engineer.” Gemini 3.5 Flash · Email security · scale prompt · alternative
“organizations prioritizing control and detection iteration may prefer Sublime Security (API-first approach)” MiniMax M2.5 · Email security · 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.

What carried it into the answer

The sites and pages cited by the answers that named Sublime Security. 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 14 of the 25 answers that named Sublime Security 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 Sublime Security'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 Sublime Security, 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 sublime.security 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.
