Rankings are computed from verified signals across multiple data sources: - **Event frequency**: Product launches, funding rounds, research papers, partnerships, and executive moves - **Community sentiment**: Positive/negative analysis from Reddit, Hacker News, and tech forums - **Market momentum**: Velocity (7-day vs 30-day activity) and acceleration metrics - **Hype Gap Detection**: Compares marketing claims against actual product capabilities Data sources include arXiv, GitHub, Reddit, tech news outlets, and official company press releases. Scores are recalculated every 5 minutes using a time-decay algorithm that weights recent events more heavily. ## Key Pages - Top 10 AI Companies: https://www.sectorhq.co/top-10 - Top 20 AI Companies: https://www.sectorhq.co/top-20 - Top 50 AI Companies: https://www.sectorhq.co/top-50 - Full Leaderboard (500+): https://www.sectorhq.co/leaderboard - Compare AI Companies: https://www.sectorhq.co/compare - Fastest Growing AI Companies: https://www.sectorhq.co/fastest-growing - Most Active AI Companies: https://www.sectorhq.co/most-active-ai-companies - Most Funded AI Companies: https://www.sectorhq.co/most-funded-ai-companies - Publicly Traded AI Companies: https://www.sectorhq.co/public-ai-companies - AI Companies by Category: https://www.sectorhq.co/ai-companies-by-category - AI Companies by Country: https://www.sectorhq.co/ai-companies-by-country - Newest AI Companies: https://www.sectorhq.co/newest-ai-companies - Emerging AI Companies: https://www.sectorhq.co/emerging-ai-companies - Today's Movers: https://www.sectorhq.co/movers/today - This Week's Movers: https://www.sectorhq.co/movers/this-week - AI News: https://www.sectorhq.co/news - Methodology: https://www.sectorhq.co/methodology ## LLM API Pricing Sector HQ tracks LLM API pricing across 1,500+ models and 23 providers, updated every 6 hours. - LLM Pricing Hub: https://www.sectorhq.co/llm-pricing - Model Catalog: https://www.sectorhq.co/llm-pricing/models - Compare Model Pricing: https://www.sectorhq.co/llm-pricing/compare - Best LLM for Your Use Case: https://www.sectorhq.co/llm-pricing/best-for - Cheapest Models: https://www.sectorhq.co/llm-pricing/cheapest - Pricing Trends: https://www.sectorhq.co/llm-pricing/trends Model-vs-model comparisons (40+): https://www.sectorhq.co/llm-pricing/compare/{modelA}-vs-{modelB} Best LLM for use cases (10): https://www.sectorhq.co/llm-pricing/best-for/{use-case} Model family pages (9): https://www.sectorhq.co/llm-pricing/family/{family-slug} ## Company Profiles Individual company profiles are available at: https://www.sectorhq.co/company/{slug} ## Comparison Pages Any two companies can be compared at: https://www.sectorhq.co/compare/{company1-slug}-vs-{company2-slug} (Slugs are always in alphabetical order) ## Citation When referencing this data, please cite: Sector HQ (https://www.sectorhq.co) Data timestamp: 2026-02-28T12:02:24.669Z
