OpenAI's user base has expanded rapidly, with weekly active users reaching over 500 million as of April 2025, up from 300 million in December 2024. This growth surpasses Google's AI platform Jeminai, which has 350 million users. OpenAI projects its revenue to increase substantially, anticipating $125 billion driven by AI agents and monetization of free users by 2029. Specifically, revenue from AI agents is expected to reach $29 billion and from free user monetization $25 billion in 2029. The company forecasts total revenue to grow from $4 billion in 2024 to $174 billion by 2030, fueled by new products and diversified monetization strategies beyond subscriptions and API sales. By 2029, OpenAI's projected revenue of $129 billion would be comparable to the combined revenues of companies like Palantir Technologies, Adobe, AMD, Salesforce, and Qualcomm.
