Shares here are read over the models both editions asked, so they can differ by a point or two from the standing above, which counts every model in this edition.
The floor is 13 points of share, measured: how far the models move a leader on their own when the same questions are asked twice with nothing changed. A larger change is movement; a smaller one is noise, and both are shown. Movement is read over the twelve models both editions asked; GPT-6 Luna, Muse Glimmer 30B joined this edition and are in the standing but not yet in the comparison.

What the models said for it
Verbatim evidence the judge attached to positive labels.
“Together or MentorcliQ | Strong integrations, automated matching, and robust executive reporting.” Gemini 3.5 Flash · Mentoring software · comparative prompt · first choice
“Best for: Large enterprises... MentorcliQ leads on algorithmic matching quality.” DeepSeek V4 Flash · Mentoring software · comparative prompt · first choice
“MentorcliQ and Mentorloop are the top starting points” GLM 4.7 FlashX · Mentoring software · direct prompt · first choice
“#1-ranked all-around employee mentoring platform (2026)” GLM 4.7 FlashX · Mentoring software · comparative 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.
“What to Avoid on a Tight Budget - MentorcliQ: Starts at ~$9,900/year” Kimi K2 · Mentoring software · budget prompt · hard negative
“Legacy enterprise tools (like Chronus or MentorcliQ) are often too complex, highly manual to configure, and cost-prohibitive for mid-market budgets.” Gemini 3.5 Flash · Mentoring software · paraphrase prompt · soft negative
“MentorcliQ or Chronus: These are top-tier, heavy-duty enterprise platforms... may be slightly overkill—and more expensive” Gemini 3.5 Flash · Mentoring software · scale prompt · soft negative
“Major enterprise players like Together, Chronus, and MentorcliQ typically start at $10,000+ per year” Gemini 3.5 Flash · Mentoring software · budget prompt · soft negative

What carried it into the answer
The sites and pages cited by the answers that named MentorcliQ. 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 147 of the 152 answers that named MentorcliQ and are not a share of its labels.

How it is countedHide how it is counted
Every page mentorcliq.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.

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 MentorcliQ'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 MentorcliQ, 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 MentorcliQ by email, built from the raw record of the edition. It shows:
- where MentorcliQ 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 MentorcliQ, 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.
