Engine by engine
Greenhouse vs Lever: what the data says
When buyers ask AI assistants like ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini to recommend applicant tracking system, Greenhouse is recommended more often than Lever — scoring 58/100 for AI visibility versus 29/100. Greenhouse shows up in 60% of AI answers to real buyer questions; Lever shows up in 40%.
The gap is widest on ChatGPT, where Greenhouse is clearly favoured: Greenhouse is recommended 60% of the time and Lever 40%. Because each engine draws on different sources, a brand can lead on one and trail on another — which is why it pays to track all three rather than assume one result holds everywhere.
In practice, an AI assistant asked “What is the best recruitment software for small businesses?” is more likely to put Greenhouse on its shortlist. Lever is largely invisible in AI answers for applicant tracking system — and since these shortlists are increasingly where buying decisions start, that's a gap worth closing.
