> Annualized revenue was about $50 billion at the end of September, with enterprise business growth driving the increase.

OpenAI expects its annualized revenue to reach or exceed $70 billion by the end of 2026, underscoring the scale of enterprise demand for artificial intelligence services.

The company’s annualized revenue stood at about $50 billion at the end of September. That would represent an increase of at least $20 billion in OpenAI’s annualized revenue run rate over three months.

OpenAI disclosed the figures to investors while discussing its latest funding round. Enterprise business growth is expected to drive the increase.

Annualized revenue measures a company’s current revenue pace over a full year and does not necessarily equal revenue recognized during that year.
