Methodology
Source: licensed B2B firmographic and technographic data, pulled 9 Oct 2026; updated 2026-10-09. Scope: the largest companies (by employee count, up to 200 per tool and country, any size) where the tool was detected; likely local branches or subsidiaries of bigger groups are left out. This is a list of the biggest detected users, not a growth ranking. Companies without a growth figure are ranked after those with one, largest first. Software is detected from public web, DNS and job-post signals: it shows a footprint, not a contract, and misses tools that leave no public trace. Growth is the modelled 1-year change in employee count; values above 200% are estimates. Company-level only. We publish a page only when at least 15 companies qualify.
