Movement

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

“Shortlist to evaluate: Uptime.com, Better Stack, or UptimeRobot Enterprise — all offer enterprise features without the complexity and cost of full observability suites like Datadog.” Kimi K2 · Uptime monitoring · scale prompt · first choice

“Most teams with limited budgets find Uptime Kuma (if self-hosted) or UptimeRobot (free plan) to be the best starting points” GLM 4.7 FlashX · Uptime monitoring · budget prompt · first choice

“UptimeRobot is the best default choice because it is repeatedly identified as the best free or low-cost option” Perplexity Sonar · Uptime monitoring · budget prompt · first choice

“the best overall choice is usually UptimeRobot if you want the simplest, cheapest way to get reliable uptime checks” GPT-5.4 mini · Uptime monitoring · budget 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.

“If you rely on it for anything critical, the false positives alone can erode trust in your monitoring system. The ToS change was also a significant red flag” DeepSeek V4 Flash · Uptime monitoring · negative prompt · hard negative

“Tools to Avoid/Caution: UptimeRobot (Free Plan) ... its free tier has significant limitations that professional DevOps teams often reject” Qwen 3.7 Flash · Uptime monitoring · negative prompt · hard negative

“Avoid UptimeRobot Free for a business unless you move to a paid plan, because the free tier is now personal-use only.” Muse Glimmer 30B · Uptime monitoring · budget prompt · hard negative

“several users and reviewers have expressed caution. UptimeRobot has repeatedly stripped features from its paid plans over time, which has eroded trust” Mistral Small · Uptime monitoring · negative prompt · soft negative

What carried it into the answer

The sites and pages cited by the answers that named UptimeRobot. 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 182 of the 200 answers that named UptimeRobot and are not a share of its labels.

How it is countedHide how it is counted

Every page uptimerobot.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. Read September 29, 2026.

Names read as UptimeRobot

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

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

where UptimeRobot 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 UptimeRobot, 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 UptimeRobot is ranked in a category's top three this edition. Three sizes, one file each, light and dark; the code is under each.

AI models recommend UptimeRobot first in Website and synthetic monitoring 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.
