This report is generated from AppsInsight’s live directory data — not vendor submissions or estimates. Every number below is computed from the same database that powers scores, rankings, and reviews on the site. The snapshot refreshes weekly after the full score pass.
Beyond the directory snapshot, this report includes week-over-week deltas, category score benchmarks for the largest app categories, and a commercial separation section that counts sponsored IT listings separately from editorial featured apps.
Report generated September 12, 2026 10:25 am from live directory data. Refreshed weekly after the full score pass.

Commercial separation
Sponsored IT listings carry a visible label and are excluded from organic rank order. Featured apps are editorial picks in designated archive slots — not paid placements and not rank inputs. How we make money →
Company ranking modes
15 service categories use editor-set rank order; 388 use the automatic fallback (rating → reviews → verified → name). How we rank companies →
What this report is for
Software directories rarely show their own health metrics. We publish ours so buyers, vendors, and quality raters can verify that AppsInsight is active, moderated, and improving. If appeals are rising, scores are stale, or review volume drops, it shows up here first.
