At a glance
What we observed in this categoryauto-generated
FinQuery leads the lease accounting software category with a composite score of 35.0, nearly 6 points ahead of second-ranked Visual Lease (28.8), and the gap is driven almost entirely by citation dominance rather than raw visibility. FinQuery's citation rate of 87.5% is extraordinary against a category average of just 7.5%, meaning Google AI Mode treats finquery.com as a highly trusted reference even though its visibility rate (12.5%) matches five other brands. Visual Lease holds the highest visibility at 25.0% but converts that into citations at only 37.5%, suggesting it appears in AI responses more often but is cited as a source far less proportionally than FinQuery.
A sharp divergence between visibility and citation defines this category. Brands ranked 3 through 7 — LeaseQuery, CoStar Real Estate Manager, Lucernex, SAP, and Accruent — each share identical visibility (12.5%) and identical citation rates (0.0%), making them named in AI responses but never cited as source material. Re-Leased and Trullion present the inverse anomaly: zero visibility yet 12.5% citation each, meaning the AI references their domains as sources without surfacing the brands by name in answers. This named-vs-trusted split is a defining structural pattern of the category.
Google AI Mode is the sole engine recorded across all 20 brands, indicating the audit is entirely anchored on that platform with no cross-engine variance to report. The top cited sources list reveals that AI responses lean on third-party validators — g2.com, gartner.com, and reddit.com — alongside specialist content from netgain.tech and xtract.io, in addition to first-party domains finquery.com and visuallease.com. The presence of youtube.com in top cited sources suggests AI Mode is drawing on video content to construct responses in this category.

How to read this ranking
Four things worth knowing before you act on the numbers above. These are the same definitions across every industry page — for category-specific observations, see the What we observed section above (where available) and the per-brand insights inline in the ranking.
Visibility = being named
A brand's visibility % is the share of AI answers that mention it by name in the response prose. This is who AI engines actively recommend to the buyer.
Citation rate = being trusted
Citation rate is the share of AI answers that include the brand's domain as a clickable source link. This is what the AI treats as authoritative evidence — different from being named.
Top engine differs by brand
The "top engine" column shows which AI surface each brand performs best on. Big gaps between a brand's score across engines usually points to specific content or schema gaps.
Rankings move month to month
AI engines re-crawl and re-rank on shorter cycles than classical search. We re-audit every brand on this list at least every 30 days and refresh this page automatically.
