Trending LLMs
Data as of
These rankings count what people do on Stackness: a trending tool is one that was added to the most stacks in the window, a rising tool is one whose recent additions are the largest share of its total users, and a trending move is the one that collected the most reactions. When a window is too quiet to rank, it widens to the next one and the page says which window it used. This is platform usage, not the imported history series that tool pages and trend waves chart - see where our data comes from.

Fetching the relevant documents at question time and putting them in the model's context, instead of relying on what the weights happen to remember.
Deciding what a model should see and in what order: which files, which history, which tools. The successor argument to prompt engineering, once the context window stopped being the scarce part.
Treating the wording of a model's instructions as an engineering artifact worth versioning, testing and reviewing rather than something typed once and forgotten.
Rising tools
No tool is growing fast enough to rank yet.
