PEER · NOW · SOURCED PUBLIC FACTS

ServiceNow (NOW)

Sourced public facts, grouped by the twelve letters, and a machine-check FOUND score. Facts are what the source says; the score is what our code could see.

Just the domain. No email, no login, usually under a minute.

FOUND Score v1.0 · read 19 Oct 2026 · Low confidence
69of 100

Low confidence: 39% of the points rest on evidence we read ourselves (the site, listing pages, awarders' lists, filings, X data, answer samples); the rest was found by live search or estimated, and is labelled so.

No earlier read to compare with yet. Read from public evidence; not a judgement of the company.

Stale: last refreshed not found, stale after 14 days

Size: >$1B revenue ($14.73B trailing twelve months to 2026-06-30; $13.28B in the fiscal year to 2025-12-31). SEC EDGAR, read 19 Oct 2026. A comparison group, not a score input.

Site: servicenow.com. Snapshots stored: 23. Nothing is overwritten; earlier snapshots stay.

FOUND machine-check score, letter by letter

Rank 16 of 20 · peers’ median 76.5 of 100

ServiceNow ranks 16 of 20 scored companies (tied with 2 others). The peers' median is 76.5 and their range 61 to 87, all of 100. Not ranked, because no score is stored: Zoho. Peers are read at different times; each read date is on the peers table.

Fix list for ServiceNow: the 4 biggest gaps first

The parts of the score furthest below what the method lets them reach, worked out from the evidence shown on this page. Each says what to do and why it moves the score. “Up to” is the most the overall score could rise if that part reached full; it is not a forecast.

  1. Following of the brand and its leaders · Opinions

    8.2 of 25 points now · up to +3 overall

    Do this: Post every week from the company account and the founder’s own account: one useful idea, one customer result, one thing you learned.

    Why it moves the score: Following of the brand and its leader is worth 25 points of Opinions, log-scaled from 50 followers, so the first thousands count the most.

    Now: 56,444 followers on the brand account, 0 on its leader (from 50, full at 20 million and 10 million).

Nothing is published or sent: you copy, edit and publish it yourself. We never write reviews or testimonials.

  2. Named in AI answers about your category · Findable, Opinions, Nods

    42.5 of 85 points now · up to +9 overall

    Do this: Publish one plain page that answers the questions buyers ask about your category (what it is, who it is for, how you compare, with prices or ranges), and get it linked from sites answer engines read: partner directories, marketplaces, trade press.

    Why it moves the score: The share of category answers that name you counts in three letters: up to 50 points of Findable, 15 of Opinions and 20 of Nods. Each extra answer that names you moves all three.

    Now: Named or cited in 2 of 3 category answers (Google Gemini, Perplexity Sonar); counted as 2 of 4 for a small sample.

  3. Security and trust published · Distinctions

    12.5 of 25 points now · up to +3 overall · partly estimated, not read on this run

    Do this: Publish /.well-known/security.txt, a trust or security page, and name your certifications (for example SOC 2 or ISO 27001) on it.

    Why it moves the score: Security and trust published is worth 25 points of Distinctions, read on your site; each check that passes adds its share.

    Now: The site could not be read for security.txt, trust page and named certifications, so it counts as average (half), labelled.

  4. Content worth citing · Underdog Moves

    12.5 of 25 points now · up to +3 overall · partly estimated, not read on this run

    Do this: Add the kinds of pages others cite that you do not have yet: a blog or newsroom, customer stories, a partners page, docs or an academy, events or a community page.

    Why it moves the score: Content worth citing is worth 25 points of Underdog Moves: 5 points for each of the 5 kinds found on your site.

    Now: The site’s pages were closed to our reader, so content counts as average (half), labelled.

Review sites (in the score, Opinions)

Searched 19 Oct 2026, each line tied by Google Search to the review site's own listing page. Our crawler then opens each listing page where the site allows it (robots.txt obeyed, no login, no bot check worked around): a rating read on the page counts in full and replaces the search figure; one only from search counts 0.9 and is marked “from search, page not read”. Business-software sites count fully; consumer sites such as Trustpilot count 0.4. Capterra, GetApp and Software Advice share one pool of reviews and count once. In this read the review part scored 29 of 50.

A listing is read on the awarder’s own page and is not verified by a person, so it counts at most 1 of 5 for Authority (2 for Authenticity, review-based only). “Not found” may mean not seen: most programmes need an entry, and some pages are built by script. Not finding a company never lowers its score. How each programme works is on the awards page; the method is on the score page.
