AI software Most used ai software among creators

OpenAI is the most-used ai software brand among creators, used by 38 of 163 documented creators as of October 2026, ahead of Anthropic on 21.

Every month from August 2023 to October 2026, counted as of the end of each month. The panel today is 163 creators. It was 12 in August 2023, so a brand can lose share here without losing a single creator.

All charts share one scale, 0 to 30% of the panel. A flat line at the bottom is a brand with no reading, not a missing chart. 93 further brands have appeared here and never reached two creators at once; they are counted in the panel and in every share on this page, and not charted, because one creator, once, is a citation rather than a trend.

Who moved

A move is one creator whose most recent reading changed brand between two consecutive months. Creators entering the panel for the first time are not counted — that would inflate every brand with people who simply appeared.
