Venture Capital firm Andreessen Horowitz analyzed spending data from over 200,000 startups to identify the top 50 AI applications companies are actually purchasing.
OpenAI and Anthropic lead, but no clear winners have emerged in most categories as startups experiment with multiple tools.
Vibe coding platforms like Replit rank highly, with enterprise features driving significantly more revenue than consumer-focused competitors.
Creative tools represent the largest category, with consumer apps like Midjourney and Canva being adopted in workplace settings.
Notably, 70 percent of these enterprise tools originated as consumer products, moving to company-wide deployment in under two years—a dramatic acceleration from traditional enterprise software adoption cycles.
The findings suggest AI is democratizing specialized skills across organizations.
