Anthropic Claude Leads in Developer Market

Lots of businesses in many industries use enterprise customer revenue models successfully. And, so far, that seems true for Anthropic, whose Clause chatbot is pitched to enterprise customers, compared to OpenAI, which tends to be thought of as the consumer user leader. 


In fact, some might argue Claude has staked out a lucrative position in software development. The argument is that every major development platform (GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Replit) uses Claude as the preferred or default model.


So Anthropic leads the enterprise developer market.

Claude has 18.9 million monthly active users and 2.9 million mobile app users, about five percent  of ChatGPT’s user base. Yet this smaller, more focused audience generates 40 percent of OpenAI’s revenue.


Claude’s efficiency metrics:

  • 16 million website visitors in January 2025

  • Average session duration of 6 minutes with 3.73 pages viewed

  • 37.2 percent of interactions from “computer and mathematical” sectors

  • 79 percent of Claude Code chats focused on automated coding tasks
