More than 73 percent of companies adopting an AI tool for the first time are choosing Anthropic, Axios reported on March 18, citing customer data from corporate payments platform Ramp.
As recently as 10 weeks ago, Anthropic and OpenAI were split 50 to 50. In early December last year, OpenAI had 60 percent and Anthropic had 40 percent.
OpenAI’s annualised revenue this year is about $25 billion, while Anthropic’s is about $19 billion. By the numbers, OpenAI leads, but Anthropic is growing faster. Several executives at Fortune 500 companies say the technology is evolving so quickly that they will not decide to use only a single AI model yet, Axios reported.
OpenAI operates the most popular chatbot service in the consumer market, but it is losing money in the B2C market because its model subsidises token usage costs.
The Wall Street Journal recently reported that OpenAI is reviewing a possible shift toward a strategy focused on corporate customers.
