Movement

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

“Deploy Vigil or Talon alongside a local LLM or pay-as-you-go API.” Gemini 3.5 Flash · AI SOC agents · budget prompt · first choice

“Choose one dedicated browser (e.g., Island or Palo Alto/Talon)” Gemini 3.5 Flash · Enterprise browsers · scale prompt · first choice

“look at Island or Talon” Perplexity Sonar · Enterprise browsers · comparative prompt · first choice

“Talon is grouped with Island as a purpose-built option for mid-market SaaS and BYOD/third-party governance” Muse Glimmer 30B · Enterprise browsers · direct 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.

“Why not a full-blown "alternative" enterprise browser (e.g., Island, Vivaldi, Talon, Netskope)?” GLM 4.7 FlashX · Enterprise browsers · paraphrase prompt · soft negative

“Talon (now Palo Alto Prisma Access Browser) — *Caution: Complexity & Pricing*” DeepSeek V4 Flash · Enterprise browsers · negative prompt · soft negative

What carried it into the answer

The sites and pages cited by the answers that named Talon. 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 37 of the 39 answers that named Talon and are not a share of its labels.

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

where Talon 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 Talon, 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.
