OpenAI's weekly active users have skyrocketed to over 400 million since early February, a number that shows rapid growth in the adoption of artificial intelligence tools in ChatGPT.
The Microsoft-backed startup had 300 million weekly active users in December 2024. The company's number of paying enterprise users also surpassed 2 million in February 2025, doubling from its last update in September 2025.
More than 400 million people use OpenAI products every week in February 2025.
These upbeat numbers come just weeks after Chinese chatbot DeepSeek launched an AI model that it said could rival or even outperform Western competitors. Notably, DeepSeek claimed its app cost a fraction of the cost, raising questions about America’s dominance in the generative AI space.
The surge in demand for DeepSeek since its launch has caused quite a few difficulties for ChatGPT, after a certain number of users, especially in the Asian region, tested the new chatbot from China.
However, the spike in user numbers since early February 2025 shows that OpenAI's products are increasingly being accepted, thanks to efforts to improve artificial intelligence. A representative of the manufacturer ChatGPT revealed that there were regularly more than 400 million users of this product every week at the beginning of this year.
There are also questions surrounding how DeepSeek was able to obtain Nvidia's H800 chips, which are used to train AI models, despite Washington banning their export to China.
According to a report from OpenAI, traffic to the ChatGPT maker's reasoning models has doubled in the past six months and increased fivefold for the o3 model since its launch in late January 2025.
