Which nearshore providers AI assistants name

Buyers now ask an assistant before they open a search engine. This page measures what those assistants answer — which providers they name, and which they never mention — using a fixed set of questions published here in full.

It is a measurement of the assistants, not a ranking of the companies. A provider absent from every answer has not been judged by this directory; it has been found to be invisible to a particular set of machines on a particular day.

How this is measured

The assistants

Each question is put to every assistant twice, and both answers are kept. Asking once would record a coin toss: these systems do not return the same answer to the same question.

Why Claude is not here

Claude is excluded at the request of the directory’s operator and is not measured. Saying so matters: an absent assistant is a gap in what this page covers, not a finding about it.

The tool

The questions were put to the assistants with CreceRank, which records every answer and the pages each one cited. The cross-reference against the eighty-nine companies here was done by hand: a name in an answer is a question, not an answer, and the ones that were read and thrown out are listed further down.

Recommendation intent only

Nothing informational. “What is nearshore outsourcing?” tells us nothing about whether an assistant names a provider, so no question like it is here. Every one asks the assistant to name, rank or compare companies.

The questions, in full

48 questions across 5 groups

All of them, exactly as sent. A page that reports AI visibility without publishing what it asked is reporting a number nobody can check — and the wording decides the answer, so the wording is the method.

Built with the GEO-INTENT framework: geographic relevance, expertise alignment, opportunity value, intent strength, natural-language variation and tracking consistency.

By country

Geographic relevance18

One pair per country the directory covers, identical in wording so the nine are comparable. A buyer with a country already in mind asks this question first.

Across the region

Geographic relevance · Natural-language variation8

The same market asked eight different ways. A provider that appears in ranked lists and vanishes from narrow recommendations has a different kind of authority than one that survives both, and only asking both ways shows it.

Expertise alignment10

The five models the directory has measured most providers publishing. Each is a different commercial question: staff augmentation and build-operate-transfer are not bought by the same person.

The six roles the most measured providers name on their own pages. Phrased as hiring questions because that is how the demand arrives.

By what is at stake

Opportunity value6

Not every engagement is worth the same. These ask for the ones where the choice of provider carries real consequence — regulated industries, money, a product that has to scale — which is where a buyer most wants somebody else's judgement.

  2. Which Latin American software companies are best for healthcare software and HIPAA-regulated products?

  3. Which nearshore companies in Latin America are best for taking a startup MVP to production?

What the assistants answered

Ranked by share of answers

The measurement gives a share of voice only to the providers named often enough to rank. Nine of them are in this directory; the tenth, Revelo, is not.

The assistants recommend companies that no longer exist

Encora scores 10.6% and encora.com serves Coforge’s homepage, with twelve mentions of Coforge and none of Encora. Tryolabs is named four times and its domain is Qubika’s. Nearsure is named five times and is part of Nortal. All three were read on the companies’ own sites before this scan ran — which is why a directory that measures can say it, and a list that copies the assistants cannot.

Named, not ranked

44 more directory companies appeared in answers without being named often enough to score. The count is how many of the 48 questions produced a mention.

Named in none of them

36 of the 89 companies in this directory appeared in no answer to any of the 48 questions. That is a finding about them, not a gap in the measurement.

By country

What was thrown out

Two matches were read and rejected. PSL appears once, inside the URL slug of a press release about Perficient acquiring it — a cited page is not a recommendation, and three letters match things they should not. Moove It appears once, inside an explanation of where Qubika came from; mentioned as somebody else’s past is not being put forward as a provider.

These questions do not change

They are not rewritten because a scan produced an unflattering answer. They change only when the directory adds a country, a service becomes important, or a question turns out to be ambiguous — and a change is recorded, because a measurement compared against a different question is not a comparison.

How this page is built

  • Named sources

    Every figure carries the source it was read from and the date it was read. Nothing is estimated.

  • Published methodology

    The scale, the gates and the thresholds are generated by the scoring engine itself, so what you read is what ran.

  • Declared gaps

    What we have not measured says so. It is never rendered as a zero or filled with a guess.

  • No paid placement

    No provider can buy a listing, a position or a reconsideration. There is no advertising on this site.
