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.
“Best For: End-to-end workflow automation and "AI Co-Workers." ... It doesn't just give advice; it can trigger workflows across multiple systems” Qwen 3.7 Flash · HR AI assistants · comparative prompt · first choice
“I'd recommend Workativ as the strongest overall choice for an HR chatbot handling employee questions” Perplexity Sonar · HR AI assistants · paraphrase prompt · first choice
“Workativ if you want quick deployment and no-code simplicity with strong workflow automation” MiniMax M2.5 · HR AI assistants · paraphrase prompt · first choice
“the best AI assistant for HR teams for a mid-market B2B company is Workativ Assistant” MiniMax M2.5 · HR AI assistants · direct 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.
“Some of the assistants to avoid include Leena AI and Workativ” Llama 4 Maverick · HR AI assistants · negative prompt · hard negative
“tools such as Leena AI or Workativ for the specific enterprise need discussed in the source” Perplexity Sonar · HR AI assistants · negative prompt · soft negative

A head-to-head page exists where both products are among a category's top eight. The other rows are the same fact without a page behind them, so they link to the product instead.
What carried it into the answer
The sites and pages cited by the answers that named Workativ Assistant. 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 30 of the 30 answers that named Workativ Assistant and are not a share of its labels.
