Key Insights
Key Takeaway
EltaMD and La Roche-Posay are the only two brands named by all four engines. On the ranking prompt specifically, every engine placed both of them in its top two. That is the tightest agreement at the head of a category this benchmark has recorded. Below those two the engines split by what they optimise for rather than by which product is better.
