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 10 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.
“1. Vic.ai - Autonomous AP at real enterprise invoice volume, with invoice coding cost drops from ~$12 to under $2 each.” Llama 4 Maverick · AI accounting assistants · paraphrase prompt · first choice
“Vic.ai is often cited as the best AI-driven tool for bookkeeping, especially for AP automation” Mistral Small · AI accounting assistants · direct prompt · first choice
“I'd recommend Vic.ai as a top choice for a mid-sized B2B company” MiniMax M2.5 · AI accounting assistants · paraphrase prompt · first choice
“The best AI bookkeeping tool for a mid-market B2B company is Vic.ai” Llama 4 Maverick · AI accounting 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.
“Both claim up to 95% autonomy for AP tasks and bookkeeping, but these figures should be treated as marketing claims rather than guarantees.” Mistral Small · AI accounting assistants · negative prompt · soft negative
“marketing that balloons to $25,000-$40,000/year for enterprise tools (Tipalti, AvidXchange, Vic.ai)” Kimi K2 · Accounts payable automat · negative prompt · soft negative
“Overhyped Autonomy Claims (e.g., Booke AI, Vic.ai claiming 95% hands-off)” Grok 4.1 Fast · AI accounting 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 Vic.ai. 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 93 of the 93 answers that named Vic.ai and are not a share of its labels.

How it is countedHide how it is counted
Every page vic.ai 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. An event counts as online when its address or title says so (webinar, on demand, virtual or online summit); a conference, summit, trade show, expo or roadshow that does not say so is counted as a conference or event, which on a vendor's site is mostly in person. Read September 29, 2026.
Names read as Vic.ai
What the judge wrote, as written, with how often. The vendor table decides that these count as Vic.ai; a claim can dispute any of them.

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