Rhodium Group releases an analysis comparing revenue from major U.S. and Chinese artificial intelligence firms. The report says OpenAI and Anthropic together generate roughly ten times the revenue of all Chinese AI models combined.
The sources also note that Rhodium’s findings go beyond revenue totals. The analysis indicates that lower revenue among some Chinese AI businesses does not automatically translate into lower valuations, suggesting market expectations and other factors influence investment levels.
CNBC highlights the revenue gap and frames it as an outcome of the latest Rhodium research on both U.S. and Chinese AI companies. PYMNTS similarly reports that combined Chinese AI models produce about a tenth of the revenue reported by the two leading U.S. startups, emphasizing the disconnect between adoption and monetization. While both outlets focus on the same core comparison, their wording differs: CNBC underscores the scale of U.S. company revenues, while PYMNTS stresses China’s broad usage not yet matching those revenue outcomes.
