Postgres hosting: what the agents install

Install share by product

Install share counts the product each answer installed first. Mentioned counts answers that named it anywhere, picked or not. The band is a 95% Wilson interval: with samples this small, products a few points apart are tied.

Prompt by prompt

Each chip is one answer (2 samples per model). None means the model built it by hand or didn't choose.
