What the models said for it

Verbatim evidence the judge attached to positive labels.

“Best For: B2B companies looking for executive/leadership talent based on specific career trajectories” Gemini 3.5 Flash · Talent intelligence · direct prompt · alternative
“Findem is the best tool to tap into this "warm" database.” Gemini 3.5 Flash · AI recruiting assistants · direct prompt · alternative
“5. Findem - Built for mid-market and enterprise” MiniMax M2.5 · Recruiting CRM · direct prompt · alternative
“Findem: The Attribute-Based Search Innovator” Gemini 3.5 Flash · Talent intelligence · comparative prompt · alternative

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.

“Strong for diversity sourcing and hard-to-find candidates, but enterprise-priced ($25K–$100K+/yr).” DeepSeek V4 Flash · AI recruiting assistants · comparative prompt · soft negative
“priced for large orgs with dedicated TA ops teams... Probably overkill for mid-market.” DeepSeek V4 Flash · Talent intelligence · direct prompt · soft negative
“Requires multi-week onboarding and its pricing is high (~$6,000/user/year)” Mistral Small · Talent intelligence · negative prompt · soft negative

What carried it into the answer

The sites and pages cited by the answers that named Findem. A fact about retrieval, not a lever on the model.

Citations exist only for the models that return a source list, four of the twelve in this edition, so these counts come from 43 of the 53 answers that named Findem and are not a share of its labels.

Is this your product?

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 Findem'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 Findem, applied by version and listed in the change log; and a one-line description supplied by the vendor and marked as such.

It does not get any change to labels, shares or verdicts, any preview, or any say over which quotes appear. A verification link goes to your work email; an address at findem.ai is approved on the spot, any other address is reviewed by hand.

Your name and company appear on the claimed page, or the company alone if you ask below. A title and a LinkedIn address appear there too if you give them, and are left off if you do not. Your email address is never published.
