That\u2019s up from 18.9% in January and 28% in March. <\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Competitors have struggled to make similar progress, Ramp\u2019s data shows. Just 8% of businesses had subscriptions to Anthropic\u2019s products as of last month compared to 4.6% in January.

It only looks at a sample of corporate spend data from around 30,000 companies. Moreover, because the index identifies AI products and services using merchant name and line-item details, it likely misses spend lumped into other cost centers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Still, the figures suggest that OpenAI is strengthening its grip on the large and growing <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.grandviewresearch.com\/industry-analysis\/enterprise-artificial-intelligence-market-report\" target=\"_blank\">enterprise market for AI<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In a <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/cdn.openai.com\/business-guides-and-resources\/identifying-and-scaling-ai-use-cases.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">report<\/a> published in April, OpenAI said that it had over 2 million business users, an increase from 1 million users <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/technology\/artificial-intelligence\/openai-considers-pricier-subscriptions-its-chatbot-ai-information-reports-2024-09-05\/\" target=\"_blank\">as of September<\/a>.
