OpenAI's annualized revenue has topped $40 billion, roughly double its end-of-2025 run rate, according to Bloomberg. July run-rate revenue alone rose over 20% month-over-month.
This robust growth was primarily driven by Codex, subscriptions, and early ad sales. Industry observers noted that this figure is now roughly equivalent to half of Anthropic's entire ARR.
