OpenAI Revenue Revised Down to $50B as Investors Correct Calculation Errors
OpenAI's annualized revenue is now estimated at $50 billion, a $20 billion drop from the $70 billion figure previously cited by investors. This correction stems from a miscalculation where investors incorrectly added a 70% growth figure to an existing $40 billion baseline. The revised figure places OpenAI behind rival Anthropic, which reports $65 billion in annualized sales. Both companies are preparing for initial public offerings in 2026 and 2027, respectively, as they compete for enterprise customers with new AI agent products.
