What the numbers say

Microsoft scores 90.3 out of 100 on the Fameproof index, ranking 1 of 186 companies measured in the run of 26 October 2026. The index is the mean of the per-model scores below.

The models broadly agree: Claude 92.0, ChatGPT 89.0, Gemini 90.0, within 3.0 points of each other.

Claude names Microsoft in 96% of answers and places it early enough to score 85% on prominence; ChatGPT names it in 92%.

Every prompt in the 24-question panel produced a mention on at least one model — an unusually complete result.

Measured inside enterprise software rather than the wide technology pool, Microsoft scores 96.0 — the fairer question for a buyer already shopping that market, though it cannot be compared across markets.
