The sources cited in these answers about a residential property management vendor
The 20 pages cited most across 148 AI answers recorded on 22 September 2026, and the Index vendors each one lists.
From 148 answers recorded on 2026-09-22, 414 distinct pages were cited. The answers came from 10 buyer questions on ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews and Google AI Mode, three runs each; two answers did not return and are left out of the base. These are the 20 cited most often.
The plain lesson: of these 20 pages, eleven are vendors' own pages, eight are editorial roundups and one is a directory or review site. The page cited most, buildium.com, appears in 24 of the 148 answers. Roundups and directories are pages a vendor can ask to be listed on; a vendor's own pages are the ones it controls. Of the 7 third-party pages that could be read, AppFolio is listed on 7, Buildium on 7, DoorLoop on 7.

Question examples are shown as plain-language themes. The linked original release preserves the exact questions and answer records; observed counts refer to that release.
How to read this: a count is the number of answers that cited the page. The vendors column comes from fetching each page on 2026-09-28 (robots.txt respected) and matching the 22 Index vendors in this category by name. A vendor listed on a page is not a vendor the engines named. A page cited today may not be cited next month.
Observed answers on stated dates, not a ranking. Absence Index release 2026-09, method v1.1, DOI 10.5281/zenodo.22907695.
