How the ledger works
- One lens for everyone. Six lenses, same order, same definitions, for every company. No company gets an extra lens for a product it wants to talk about.
- Changes, not news. An entry must move a number or a rank on a lens. Launch events, interviews and hires do not count unless they do.
- Evidence tier on every line. Independent measure, independent estimate or company data. A company's own claims are replaced when an independent score arrives.
- Gaps stay visible. If no source measures a lens for a company, the page says so.
Disclosure: AI Adoption uses AI tools in its research and editorial work, including products from some of the companies tracked here. No company has any say in its page or its ledger, and the same rules apply to every company. Editorial standards · Data sources
