At a glance
What we observed in this categoryauto-generated
TheraPlatform leads the physical therapy software category with a composite score of 15.0, driven entirely by a 50% citation rate against a category average of just 4.4%. No brand in the top 10 records any visibility percentage, meaning the gap between TheraPlatform and every other brand is expressed purely through citation frequency. WebPT sits second at 25% citation and a composite of 7.5, leaving a 40-percentage-point citation gap between first and second place that signals a highly concentrated AI attention pattern.
Visibility and citation are decoupled across this entire category. All 20 tracked brands show 0.0% visibility, yet TheraPlatform, WebPT, and PTEverywhere still accumulate meaningful citation rates of 50%, 25%, and 12.5% respectively. This means Google AI Mode is naming these brands inside generated answers without surfacing their domains as visible sources in the traditional sense. Brands ranked 4 through 10, including Prompt EMR, Clinicient, and SimplePractice, hold zero citation and zero visibility, making them effectively invisible to AI-generated responses.
Google AI Mode is the sole engine recorded across all brands in this dataset. The top cited sources include gartner.com, g2.com, reddit.com, and review-focused sites such as emrsystems.net and otpotential.com, alongside theraplatform.com and webpt.com as brand-owned domains. This suggests the AI is anchoring its physical therapy software responses on third-party review and analyst platforms rather than brand websites, with gartner.com appearing first in the cited sources list.

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.
