Movement

This is the first edition on this tier, so no move can be computed for Remote yet. From the next edition this section shows, per buyer segment, whether its share moved by more than the measured noise floor.

What the models said for it

Verbatim evidence the judge attached to positive labels.

“Choose Remote or Deel if: You want the fastest onboarding and the largest pool of available candidates/government relationships.” Qwen 3.7 Flash · Global payroll · comparative prompt · first choice

“The best employer of record for a mid-market B2B company is Oyster HR, Deel, or Remote” Llama 4 Maverick · Global payroll · direct prompt · first choice

“Remote, Deel, Papaya Global, and ADP are the safer, more reliable choices” Mistral Small · Global payroll · negative prompt · first choice

“Best all-around for both EOR and payroll: Deel, Remote, Papaya Global.” GPT-5.4 mini · Global payroll · comparative 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.

“premium, all-in-one Employer of Record (EOR) providers like Deel, Remote, or Rippling ... these admin costs can quickly deplete your capital” Gemini 3.5 Flash · Global payroll · budget prompt · soft negative

“Recent reviews note partner dependency issues ... ask clearly about their fallback strategy in complex or restricted jurisdictions.” Qwen 3.7 Flash · Global payroll · negative prompt · soft negative

“Inadequate customer support, slow response times, payment delays, missing features, high fees, unclear timelines” GLM 4.7 FlashX · Global payroll · negative prompt · soft negative

“High Caution – Major Support & Policy Declines... Public sentiment has shifted sharply negative in 2024–2025.” DeepSeek V4 Flash · Global payroll · negative prompt · soft negative

What carried it into the answer

The sites and pages cited by the answers that named Remote. 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 180 of the 222 answers that named Remote 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 Remote'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 Remote, 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 remote.com 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.
