Github edges out Snyk modestly on homepage messaging, 83 to 79. Here's where the gap comes from.

Github is clearer about what it does (100 vs 62 on clarity). Github's hero ("Search code, repositories, users, issues, pull requests...") names something concrete, while Snyk's ("Introducing the AI Security Fabric") stays abstract. Github is better at saying who it's for (ICP: 53 vs 15). Github's targeting is decent, while Snyk's is generic.

Github uses a "Community / Movement" positioning while Snyk goes with "Trust / Authority" — fundamentally different approaches to winning the same buyer.
