Creator Gear

Most used ai software among creators

OpenAI is the most-used ai software brand among creators, used by 9 of 60 documented creators as of September 2026, ahead of Anthropic on 5.

Every month from August 2023 to September 2026, counted as of the end of each month. The panel today is 60 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.

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.
