101 recorded competitive signals through October 2026 and 329 historical rank crossovers, with current historical rankings through October 2026.

Competitive signals · October 2026
Candidate competitors selected using rank or payment-share movements. Pair order reflects semantic similarity and detector confidence. The two products can meet different movement criteria, so their displayed share changes are not necessarily opposite. Share signals use percentage points; rank signals use positions.

About this data and its limitations
Popularity ranks and shares use each product's trailing-12-month software payment activity, relative to all tracked software payments. They do not measure distinct customer penetration or actual product usage. Active pairs combine related-product similarity with rank or payment-activity share criteria. A challenger can be selected for rising rank even when its payment share is falling. Detector confidence describes the pattern rules, not a statistically calibrated probability of switching.
Rank movements use the available history in the current detector; share patterns use its six-observation lookback where available. Short or missing histories can shorten these comparisons. A calendar-aligned interpretation should be checked against the product's monthly source series before citing an annual or six-month change.
Historical crossovers are candidate patterns from recorded rankings. They do not establish causation or confirmed customer replacement. Results reflect the Cledara customer population and the detector's coverage filters, rather than every software product.
Use the CSV or JSON downloads for all published pair records. Cite Cledara, the page URL and the publication date under the stated data licence.
Frequently asked questions
Which SaaS products are moving up in popularity rank?
CopyMind and Ausar appear among the published one-month popularity risers in the Cledara customer population. Rank movement measures positions, rather than percentage market share.
Does a competitive signal prove customers switched products?
No. Opposite rank or payment-activity share movements between related products, and historical rank crossovers, suggest competition. They do not establish that individual customers replaced one product with another, or demonstrate causation.
How are rank and payment activity share movements different?
Popularity rank measures a product's position by recorded software payment activity; a lower rank is better. Popularity share is its percentage of observed software purchase and renewal transactions over the trailing 12 months. It is not the percentage of customers paying for the product. Rank changes use positions; share changes use percentage points.
What population does this research cover?
Aggregated, anonymized purchasing signals from companies using Cledara. These companies are not a representative sample of the entire software market. Publication updated 17 October 2026, 23:57 UTC.
Which published products moved over the three-month window?
Among the published movers, CopyMind rose 1,744 popularity ranks and Ausar rose 1,710, while Apphud fell 1,848 ranks in the three-month comparison. Updated 17 October 2026, 23:57 UTC.
