New AI Companies Data Hub
Explore key data on frontier AI companies — revenue, funding, staff, usage rates and compute spend
Announcing our new AI Companies Data Hub!
We collected key data on frontier AI companies, including revenue run rates, funding, staff, usage rates, and compute spend. This free resource will help you understand the trajectory and economics of AI.
Revenue:
The combined revenue rates of OpenAI and Anthropic have grown around 10x since early 2024.
OpenAI’s annualized revenue reached $13 billion in August 2025, up from $5B at the start of the year.
Anthropic’s revenue has exploded this year, from $1B to $5B by July!
Funding:
OpenAI, Anthropic, and xAI have attracted massive investor interest.
OpenAI’s last raised at a value of $300 billion, with a $500B valuation under discussion.
And collectively, the frontier AI companies in our data have raised ~$100B in equity and debt funding.
Usage:
The user bases for leading chat applications like ChatGPT and Gemini have continued to grow rapidly.
ChatGPT alone surpassed 700 million weekly active users by August 2025, processing over 3 billion daily messages.
Staff:
OpenAI and Anthropic have both expanded from small startups to thousands of full-time staff, though they are still well behind Google’s flagship AI effort, Google DeepMind.
Compute spend:
Compute for research, training, and inference is expensive: OpenAI’s cloud compute bill for 2025 will exceed $15 billion!
The extensive large-scale data center buildouts underway suggest this rapid growth could continue in the coming years.
