  • GitHub Copilot reaches #10 on a sample of 803 openings, a smaller market than most of the top ten, so its rank can move more from month to month.
  • Claude is the largest market in the top ten, with 3,819 openings behind its figure.
  • Tools with fewer than 30 openings are not ranked, and small differences between neighbouring ranks are not meaningful.
