OpenAI's annualized revenue run rate has surpassed $40 billion, according to sources cited by Blockonomi, after a reported $20 billion run rate in late 2025. The report says the company's monthly run rate rose more than 20% in July, citing an internal announcement by President Greg Brockman. It attributes the acceleration to coding products, subscriptions and advertising, while saying OpenAI has cut prices on some models amid competition. OpenAI did not comment, and the figures were not independently verified.
