OpenAI has set its revenue target for 2025 at $12.7 billion. This means an increase of more than three times the company’s revenue of $ 3.7 billion last year. According to data confirmed by CNBC, OpenAI’s revenue is expected to reach $29.4 billion in 2026 and $125 billion in 2029.
OpenAI expects record revenue in 2025
OpenAI had a great success with the corporate versions of ChatGPT last year. The number of paid users, which was 1 million in September, exceeded 2 million in February. The company will offer the ChatGPT Pro plan, which provides access to the most advanced AI models, for $ 200 per month, while charging higher fees for certain AI products.
Changes are also taking place on the management side. CEO Sam Altman will withdraw from operational duties and focus on research and product development. The company’s operational processes will be carried out by COO Brad Lightcap.
In a period of rapidly increasing competition in the artificial intelligence sector, new players such as Anthropic and Perplexity, as well as giant companies such as Google and Microsoft, are strongly involved in this field. While increasing competition expands the market, it also intensifies the race between companies.
It is stated that the Japanese technology giant SoftBank plans to invest $ 40 billion in OpenAI and this investment will increase the value of OpenAI to $ 260 billion. A large part of this investment will be allocated to the ‘Stargate’ project in partnership with OpenAI, SoftBank and Oracle.
