Movement

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

“UiPath recognized as a Leader for the sixth consecutive year—positioned highest for Ability to Execute and furthest for Completeness of Vision” MiniMax M2.5 · RPA · comparative prompt · first choice

“the best robotic process automation software for a mid-sized B2B company would be UiPath, Automation Anywhere, or IBM Robotic Process Automation” Llama 4 Maverick · RPA · paraphrase prompt · first choice

“Start with the UiPath Community Edition. It is the only way to get high-end, professional-grade automation software for free.” Qwen 3.7 Flash · RPA · budget prompt · first choice

“UiPath is widely considered the gold standard for large-scale, complex enterprise automation. It has been ranked #1 by Gartner” Qwen 3.7 Flash · RPA · comparative 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.

“SMBs should approach UiPath with caution... its licensing fees, Orchestrator costs, and the high salary demands of specialized UiPath developers make its TCO steep.” Gemini 3.5 Flash · RPA · negative prompt · soft negative

“Be cautious if you need low-code citizen development on a tight budget, or want AI-first automation rather than RPA+AI add-ons.” Muse Glimmer 30B · RPA · negative prompt · soft negative

“High/ unpredictable licensing costs... Steep learning curve for advanced features; complexity overwhelms non-developers.” Grok 4.20 · RPA · negative prompt · soft negative

“Large enterprise RPA suites such as UiPath, Automation Anywhere, and Blue Prism if you are a small or mid-sized team” Perplexity Sonar · RPA · negative prompt · soft negative

What carried it into the answer

The sites and pages cited by the answers that named UiPath. 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 207 of the 220 answers that named UiPath and are not a share of its labels.

How it is countedHide how it is counted

Every page uipath.com exposes, subdomains included. Kind is read from the address and title. The last 90 days, the latest date and the twelve months count pages by when they were published, from the site's feeds, a date in the address, or the page's own publication date, read from up to a hundred of its most recently changed pages; a page that says only when it last changed is counted in its kind but not in when, so the recent counts are a floor, and a kind none of whose pages gives a publication date reads undated. An event counts as online when its address or title says so (webinar, on demand, virtual or online summit); a conference, summit, trade show, expo or roadshow that does not say so is counted as a conference or event, which on a vendor's site is mostly in person. Read September 29, 2026.

Is this your product?

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

where UiPath 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 UiPath, 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.

Badges

Wins only: a badge exists where UiPath is ranked in a category's top three this edition. Three sizes, one file each, light and dark; the code is under each.

ShowHide

UiPath is among the products AI models recommend first in Robotic process automation this edition. Each badge says so in the buyer's words, names the edition, and links to the standing. The next edition issues a new badge; this one stays true as a record of October 2026.
