September 2026 Edition. Every number here is derived from the raw labels under vendor table vv2026-09.2, every buyer segment counted.

Standing

9 labels, too few to rank

A product needs 10 labels in a category before a share or quadrant is stated. Dext was named 9 times in AI accounting assistants and 1 other category, where Sage Intacct led with 25%. The labels and the evidence are below, counted exactly.

Standing by category

Every category where a model named Dext for a mid-market B2B company. Share is first choices across the direct, paraphrase, budget and scale prompts; rank is within every product named in that category.

Category	Function	Share	Rank	Negative rate	Labels	Quadrant
AI accounting assistants	Accounting and close	0%	17 of 79	0%	8	under 10 labels · led by Sage Intacct at 25%
Expense management	Spend and procurement	0%	41 of 46	100%	1	under 10 labels · led by Ramp at 34%

Movement

This is the first edition on this tier, so no move can be computed for Dext yet. From the next edition this section shows, per buyer segment, whether its share moved by more than the measured noise floor.

By model

How each model treated Dext across every prompt where it was named for a mid-market B2B company. Twelve models, six prompts per category.

By framing

Which of the six questions produced the naming. By model says how often; this says asked what. The first-choice count on the right carries the marks of the models that produced it.

What the models said for it

Verbatim evidence the judge attached to positive labels.

“The best AI accounting platforms (like QuickBooks’ built-in AI agents, Dext, or MakersHub) do not replace human review” Gemini 3.5 Flash · AI accounting assistants · negative prompt · first choice

“Dext is ideal for capturing receipts/invoices from various sources” Qwen 3.7 Flash · AI accounting assistants · comparative prompt · alternative

“If you need bookkeeping and document capture, look at Dext” Perplexity Sonar · AI accounting assistants · comparative prompt · alternative

“Doc-heavy workflow → Dext or DOKKA for extraction.” DeepSeek V4 Flash · AI accounting assistants · comparative prompt · alternative

And against it

Verbatim evidence attached to negative labels. A warning on a product with few labels is a warning; on a product with many, it is one voice among them.

“those that demand manual receipt handling (Expensify, Dext, Zoho Expense, SAP Concur)” Mistral Small · Expense management · negative prompt · soft negative

What carried it into the answer

The sites and pages cited by the answers that named Dext. A fact about retrieval, not a lever on the model.

Citations exist only for the models that return a source list, four of the twelve in this edition, so these counts come from 20 of the 22 answers that named Dext and are not a share of its labels.

Is this your product?

Claim this page

Claiming is free and changes nothing in the data. A claimed page shows a verified contact who is told when each edition publishes and when Dext's standing changes by more than the noise floor; the right to propose corrections to the vendor table, meaning names the judge wrote that should or should not read as Dext, applied by version and listed in the change log; and a one-line description supplied by the vendor and marked as such.

It does not get any change to labels, shares or verdicts, any preview, or any say over which quotes appear. A verification link goes to your work email; an address at dext.com is approved on the spot, any other address is reviewed by hand.

Your name and company appear on the claimed page, or the company alone if you ask below. A title and a LinkedIn address appear there too if you give them, and are left off if you do not. Your email address is never published.
