AI citation share: answers citing the site divided by the 314 AI answers about industrial companies (businesses whose brand the Grades.com directory files under "Industrial"), from ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Perplexity. The chart and the table rank the sites cited in 20 or more of these answers. Search-result and help pages on a review site are not counted.

Picks: most cited by AI = highest citation share; easiest to get reviews = the site cited most whose own rules let anyone review, let the business send a direct review link and allow asking (from its guide; never Yelp, which does not allow asking); most replies from businesses = highest share of reviews with a business reply, across all industries, shown with at least 100 reviews checked. A pick the data cannot support is left out.
Start with these three: the sites cited most for industrial companies that Grades.com collects, one per site Grades.com connects. A site that shows another site's reviews is covered by connecting that site.
Site reach: estimated monthly organic search visits to the site's domain (DataForSEO Labs, Ahrefs Domain Rating, October 2026); an estimate for the whole domain, not a figure published by the site, and the same in every industry.
