A new Menlo Ventures report finds Chinese AI models account for 89% of global enterprise spending on open-source models: Moonshot AI's Kimi leads with a 61% share, followed by DeepSeek at 15% and Z.ai's GLM series at 11%. Meta's Llama, the top Western offering, holds just 7%.
The report notes open-source remains a small slice overall — proprietary US models still capture the vast majority of total enterprise AI revenue.
