OpenAI released new data showing enterprise usage of its AI tools has skyrocketed over the past year, with ChatGPT message volume up 8x since November 2024. Workers now report saving 40–60 minutes per day with the company’s enterprise products.
The release comes just a week after CEO Sam Altman reportedly issued a “code red” internally over pressure from Google’s Gemini. While 36% of U.S. businesses now use ChatGPT Enterprise — more than double Anthropic’s share — most of OpenAI’s revenue still comes from consumer subscriptions, a segment increasingly under threat.
OpenAI’s leadership stressed that enterprise adoption is becoming critical as the company faces $1.4 trillion in infrastructure commitments.
