Flags: Ten Speed study — vendor-published
Entities: reddit, chatgpt, perplexity

Ten Speed analyzed 170 B2B buyer-evaluation prompts across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude and Gemini, generating 7,387 citation appearances tracked via the Peec AI tool. Product pages drew the largest share, 24.1%, ahead of blog/PR content (17.4%) and comparison pages and listicles (about 13% each); Reddit, YouTube and forums combined for just 4.2%, per Search Engine Journal's review of the study. SEJ's own fact-checking found the citation-share comparison was descriptive only, without statistical testing, and that Ten Speed's published prompt count (220) didn't match the analysis's 170 until the vendor corrected it.

Why it matters: For B2B evaluation-stage queries, vendor-controlled pages — not Reddit or YouTube — currently carry most of the citation weight across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude and Gemini.
