🆕 The Ketch Agent Network: Agentic privacy, finally built right. See how it works
Ketch makes consent banner set-up a breeze with drag-and-drop tools that match your brand perfectly. Let us show you.
G2 Summer 2026 results confirm what 3,500+ brands already know: Ketch works. This quarter, Ketch earned 22 badges across 41 reports spanning Consent Management, Data Subject Access Requests, Data Privacy Management, Cookie Tracking, and Sensitive Data Discovery, with #1 rankings in Enterprise Usability, Results, and Relationship for CMP. Only 2% of products across G2's 27,340 Summer reports earned a Leader badge. Ketch earned several.
G2's Summer 2026 reports are out, and the numbers tell a specific story about where the data privacy market is heading, and who's leading it.
Ketch earned 22 badges across 41 reports this quarter, spanning five categories: Consent Management Platform, Data Subject Access Request, Data Privacy Management, Cookie Tracking, and Sensitive Data Discovery. That's recognition across every market segment G2 evaluates — Enterprise, Mid-Market, and Small Business — and across every index type: Grid, Momentum, Usability, Results, Relationship, and Implementation.
To put that in context: G2 published 27,340 reports this quarter across more than 2,000 software and service categories.
Only 2% of the software products featured in those reports earned a Leader badge. Ketch earned Leader recognition in multiple categories simultaneously.
Here's a full breakdown of what Ketch earned, where it ranked, and what drove the movement.
G2 is a peer review platform where verified software buyers rate products based on real-world use, no analyst interviews, no vendor submissions, no marketing claims. Every quarter, G2 publishes Grid Reports, Index Reports (Usability, Results, Relationship, Implementation), and Momentum Reports across software categories. Rankings come from aggregated customer scores, full stop.
Ketch carries a 4.6/5.0 satisfaction score on G2, built on 140+ verified reviews. The 22 Summer 2026 badges represent the categories and segments where that score translates into a top-tier ranking, and where market presence is strong enough to match it.
High satisfaction alone doesn't produce a badge. The Leader designation requires both satisfaction scores and market presence above the threshold. Momentum Leader requires score trajectory and growth velocity, not just a high number. Best Support and Best Relationship require verified signals on those specific dimensions. Every badge is earned on a distinct axis, not on overall goodwill.
Appearing in a report at all carries its own meaning. G2 requires a minimum of six products with 10+ reviews each and 150+ total reviews in a category before it publishes a Grid Report. Ketch's presence across 41 reports — spanning every index type, every segment (Enterprise, Mid-Market, Small Business, Overall), and every report format G2 publishes — reflects real scale: hundreds of verified reviews, consistent performance across enough dimensions that G2 can rank Ketch comprehensively, and a customer base large enough to generate meaningful signal in every direction.
G2 badges aren't self-reported. They're calculated from verified reviews by real customers rating satisfaction, usability, support, results, and ease of doing business. Ketch holds a 4.6/5.0 satisfaction score on G2 across 140+ reviews. The 22 Summer 2026 badges reflect where that score — combined with market presence — translates into top-tier ranking.
A few standouts worth naming:
#1 in Enterprise Usability, Results, and Relationship for Consent Management. Held from last quarter. Enterprise software is notorious for being powerful and painful in equal measure. Holding the top spot across all three of those dimensions simultaneously says something different.
#1 in DSAR Momentum, up from #3. Data subject rights automation is a category where execution failures have real consequences. The California CPPA settlement with Todd Snyder ($345,000) cited misconfiguration that blocked opt-out processing entirely, exactly the kind of failure Ketch is built to prevent. Ketch jumped to #1 in DSAR Momentum this quarter, the fastest-growing platform in the category on G2.
+7 positions in Data Privacy Management Momentum. From #10 to #3 in a single quarter. The Ketch Agent Network — the AI intelligence layer powering every Ketch product, launched May 2026 — is the reason. It's the first privacy platform that continuously triangulates across what regulations require, what your policies commit to, and what your systems are actually doing. The market is registering that.
Leader in Consent Management across Enterprise and Mid-Market. Both segments, simultaneously. A platform that scales without sacrificing usability is still a rare thing in this category.
G2's Summer 2026 analysis flagged Agentic AI as the fastest-growing software category on the platform, 26 new products added in a single quarter. Ketch launched a purpose-built agentic aprivacy infrastructure right into that wave. The rank movements above are the first quarter of data reflecting that launch.
Privacy enforcement isn't slowing down. More U.S. state laws are going live each year. The CNIL, CPPA, and FTC are all active. AI is expanding the surface area of data exposure faster than most compliance programs can track. The organizations building on Ketch are doing so because they want a platform that grows with those demands, not one that requires constant manual intervention to stay current.
Twenty-two badges from verified customers is one measure of that. Forty-one reports is another. Most vendors appear in a handful of reports in their primary category. Ketch appears in 41, across five categories, all three market segments, and every evaluation dimension. That's what integrated platform coverage looks like when customers rate it honestly.
The underlying story is that privacy done right is finally being recognized as the infrastructure question it has always been.
