  "summary": "Esprit is tracked across AI employer visibility rankings in the Apparel sector. When candidates research the company through AI, it surfaces consistently in employer-related queries — ranking #11 out of 40 Apparel companies in the PerceptionX index.\n\nAI models most frequently position Esprit alongside Adidas, Puma, and Zalando when discussing Apparel employers.\n\nThe company shows strongest employer visibility in Application & Communication, Career Opportunities and Compensation. Visibility gaps exist in Candidate Feedback, Company Culture and Innovation, where competitors tend to dominate the AI narrative.\n\nEsprit's Visibility Score has fallen from 10.9 to 10.3 across its last 3 measurements (since February 2026), slipping 2 places in the Apparel rankings. Over that period it has moved ahead of Engelbert Strauss and S.oliver. H & M and C & A have moved ahead of it. It now trails Otto by 2.5 points.\n\nThis analysis is based on AI-generated responses from ChatGPT, Google Gemini, and Perplexity. Data is refreshed regularly to reflect changes in AI employer perception.",

Ranks are computed per industry and country; ties break by mention count, then company name. Responses from other assistants (e.g. Claude, DeepSeek) are collected for research but not included in index scoring.",
