OpenAI recently disclosed to investors that, as of the end of September, the company's annualized revenue scale was about $50 billion, lower than the $70 billion widely reported by the market at the end of last month. People familiar with the matter said the difference stems from different statistical calibers: Anthropic includes sales revenue generated by cloud partners in revenue, while OpenAI does not use this method. OpenAI also disclosed that overall revenue run-rate grew 77% in the third quarter, enterprise business revenue run-rate grew 107%, and it confidentially submitted listing documents in June this year. On October 10, Rohan Paul cited an FT report to further explain that OpenAI calculates based on net income after deducting the share of partners such as Microsoft, while Anthropic calculates based on gross sales through cloud partners; both methods comply with US GAAP; the report said the $70 billion ARR was not announced by the company itself, but was derived by investors after upward adjustment according to Anthropic's caliber.
