ChatGPT now has more than 900 million weekly active users, OpenAI announced on Friday. The new weekly active user numbers represent a 100 million increase from the 800 million reported in October 2025. Not only is the company close to hitting the 1 billion mark, but it also now has more than 50 million paying subscribers.
“Subscriber momentum accelerated meaningfully to start the year, with January and February on track to be the largest months for new subscribers in our history,” OpenAI wrote in a blog post. “People use ChatGPT to learn, write, plan, and build. As usage scales, the product improves in ways people feel immediately: faster responses, higher reliability, stronger safety, and more consistent performance.”
The new active weekly user number was shared as part of an announcement that the company had raised $110 billion in new investment at a $730 billion pre-money valuation. The figure includes $30 billion from SoftBank, $30 billion from NVIDIA, and $50 billion from Amazon. “We’ve also signed a strategic partnership with Amazon and secured next generation inference compute with NVIDIA,” the company shared.
“These partnerships expand our global reach, deepen our infrastructure, and strengthen our balance sheet so we can bring frontier AI to more people, more businesses, and more communities worldwide.”
