“Avg position” shows where a brand appears, on average, when ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity are asked for the leading Food & Beverage brands — a lower value means the brand is named earlier in the answer. “Consensus” shows how strongly the three engines agree on that brand. Every result comes from brand-free buyer questions: the engines are asked, with no brand named in the prompt, which providers they would recommend — once on a neutral query and once from the perspective of real audience personas grounded in survey data. Only brands named by at least 2 of the 3 engines enter the ranking. The data is refreshed regularly; the current scan is from 2026-11-13.
