Executive summary
GitHub is highly likely to be cited by AI engines for evaluation-stage prompts like "What is the best version control hosting software?" and "How does GitHub compare to GitLab?" because it has strong third-party review authority (G2 + Gartner Peer Insights) and first-party comparison content on GitHub Resources. The single highest-ROI fix is to improve crawlable, structured pricing + evaluation Q&A (FAQPage/SoftwareApplication) so prompts like "How much does GitHub cost?" and "Is GitHub worth it for a mid-market team?" can be answered from GitHub-owned pages rather than only from third parties.
