The Week 29 Productivity Software Report
A category-by-category reading of all ten Week 29 Productivity software markets, with verified Top 3 rankings, assistant splits, evidence counts, and official week-over-week movement.
The First Productivity Movement Report
This report covers Cooper's Week 29 Productivity software hub: ten category-relative Overall AIQ rankings measured across ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, and Perplexity from July 13 through July 19, 2026, under scoring version aiq-v2.
The hub contains 287 unique products, 831 cited pages from 512 source domains, and 1,973 verified mentions. Hub totals deduplicate products and evidence shared across categories, so the category totals below remain separate market records.
Eight of the ten Productivity category leaders changed from Week 28. Project Management and Appointment Scheduling retained their leaders; the other eight markets placed a different product first.
How to Read This Report
Overall AIQ combines Cooper's Best, Most affordable, and Easiest to set up questions inside one category. Assistant columns show each product's category rank in that Overall scope. An em dash means no category rank from that assistant in this measurement, not a negative recommendation.
Sources count distinct verified domains and Mentions count distinct verified product-page relationships. Neither measure explains rank. Rising AIQ is separate, and the Week 29 Rising AIQ report covers that dimension independently.
Movement compares the same product, category, and Overall scope in the immutable Week 28 and Week 29 editions. Category links open the live ranking while Week 29 is current and will resolve to this edition's archive after rollover.
