For-Sale-By-Owner Platforms
Marketplaces and services that enable homeowners to list and sell properties directly to buyers without traditional full-service agents.
Zillow is the default answer in AI responses for For-Sale-By-Owner Platforms
When users ask ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini about For-Sale-By-Owner Platforms, Zillow is the brand that surfaces first - unprompted, consistently, and usually at the top of any list the model generates. Houzeo is a close second, but the gap between them is meaningful. If you're competing in this space and you're not in the top handful, you're effectively invisible to AI-driven discovery.

How is this calculated? Methodology
Every brand in this leaderboard is scored against the same set of 308 shared For-Sale-By-Owner Platforms prompts. The same prompts, same model, same iterations. So differences in scores reflect actual differences in AI visibility, not differences in measurement.
Overall AI Visibility Score
(LBA × Authority × TOM)^(1/3). Geometric mean is used so that any single weak metric pulls the overall score down, rather than being masked by strength elsewhere.
Shared industry prompts
Latent Brand Association (LBA)
quality × meta × stability × share × recognition × 100. Read the full LBA methodology →
