March 4 (Reuters) - Artificial ‌intelligence startup ​OpenAI ​topped $25 billion in annualized revenue as of the end of last month, The ‌Information reported on Wednesday, citing a person ⁠familiar with the figure.

This is a 17% increase from the $21.4 ‌billion in annualized revenue ‌that the company generated at the end of the year, the report said.

Reuters could not ​verify the report. OpenAI did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

OpenAI is ⁠expanding into the enterprise market by teaming up with four of ​the world’s largest consulting firms, betting that a more hands-on approach will help corporate ​clients move beyond pilot projects ‌to full-scale AI deployments.

In the enterprise race, OpenAI faces competition from rivals ⁠such as Anthropic and giants like Google that are selling AI capabilities to enterprises.

Since late 2022, OpenAI ⁠has gone from effectively zero revenue to more than $20 billion ​in annualized revenue in 2025. Its rival Anthropic has followed a similar trajectory, climbing to roughly $9 billion in annualized ‌revenue.

OpenAI is targeting roughly $600 billion in total compute spending through 2030, as ‌the ChatGPT maker lays the groundwork for an ⁠IPO that could ‌value it at ​up to $1 trillion.
