Rankscale
sampled: 3 of 4 assistants this week
Rankscale shows up in 14 of 61 answers across AI assistants, landing an overall score of 11 out of 100. The split between assistants is uneven: Claude rates it highest at 32, Perplexity barely registers at 3, and ChatGPT doesn't mention it at all, scoring 0. Its best showing is on questions about free or cheap AI visibility tools, named in 2 of 3 answers, with scattered single mentions on enterprise platforms, API access, and SaaS founder tools. It's never named for share-of-voice comparisons, crawler access checks, ranking alerts, open-source tracking, or agency-focused tools, suggesting a narrow footprint concentrated on budget-friendly use cases.
this is mine claim it, free, forever. We also check whether ChatGPT and Claude can read rankscale.ai.
