TSMC scores 51.0 out of 100 on the Fameproof index, ranking 34 of 120 companies measured in the run of 5 October 2026. The index is the mean of the per-model scores below.

Visibility is uneven across models: ChatGPT scores it 55.0 while Gemini scores it 47.0, a gap of 8.0 points. A brand that is strong on one model and weak on another has a different problem from one that is mid-table everywhere.

ChatGPT names TSMC in 60% of answers and places it early enough to score 23% on prominence; Gemini names it in 49%.

Across the 24-prompt panel there are 3 prompts where at least one model does not name TSMC at all — those are the answers a competitor is winning instead, and the table below shows which.

Measured inside semiconductors rather than the wide technology pool, TSMC scores 84.0 — the fairer question for a buyer already shopping that market, though it cannot be compared across markets.
