Key Insights
Key Takeaway
For a busy pet-owning family with a mixed-floor home, AI overwhelmingly routes to Roborock first and Dreame second, with the entire category gated behind anti-tangle brushes, self-emptying docks, and LiDAR. A brand outside the Roborock-Dreame-Eufy core is effectively invisible at the moment of purchase intent unless the buyer names it.
Top Brands Summary
Roborock is the universal category leader, recommended as the #1 brand in every brand-ranking prompt across ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity, and the most-mentioned brand overall. Dreame is the consistent #2 challenger, named in all four models. Eufy holds a universal mid-tier value position. iRobot retains high mention frequency but is framed as a declining legacy brand by all four models. MOVA, Yeedi, Shark, Ecovacs, Dyson, Narwal, and TP-Link round out the long tail.
