Asked for hotels in Oslo, ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini most often named The Thief (83% of answers), Amerikalinjen (83%) and Sommerro (53%). Across 36 answers they named 18 different businesses, 3 of them only once. Each of four buyer questions was asked three times, in Norwegian, in September 2026.
The ranking
The AI Recommendation Rate is the fraction of the 36 answers that named a business. The range under it is a 95% confidence interval: where two ranges overlap, the gap between those businesses could be chance.

Named here? Put it on your site
Every business in the ranking was named in two or more answers. The badge says that and nothing more: no position, because the ranges above do not support one. It links back to this page, so anyone can check.

How to read this page
- What it measures
- Which names these models produce when asked cold, from what they learned in training. It is not a review, a rating or our recommendation, and a business missing here may simply be one the models were never shown.
- Why the ranges matter
- 36 answers is a sample. Asked again next month, most shares will move by a few points; the ranges say how far they could move by chance alone.
- One business, several spellings
- Branches, legal suffixes and spellings of one business are merged, and the other spellings are printed under its name. Names that might be two businesses are kept apart.
- A name is wrong
- If a business here is closed, misnamed or yours and you want it removed, tell us. We correct or remove it when the page is next published.
Is your business on this list?
The free scan asks the same assistants the questions your customers ask, scores whether they name you, and lists who they name instead.
