ChatGPT loses half of paid subscribers since April

> Its paid subscription tier, ChatGPT Plus, now counts over 10 million subscribers, while enterprise usage has reached near ubiquity, with 92% of Fortune 100 companies incorporating the platform into their operations.

1. Down from 20M subscribers in April 2025? https://www.theverge.com/openai/640894/chatgpt-has-hit-20-mi...

This is why they don't disclose it, to keep the hype going: https://youtu.be/MoeSL0BxZUE?si=a4HoSpxAzX33UG8t&t=209

2. 92% penetration of Fortune 100 companies: executive push, low adoption

Similar story for Microsoft with regards to adoption:

> “A source that has seen materials related to sales has confirmed that, as of August 2025, Microsoft has around eight million active licensed users of Microsoft 365 Copilot, amounting to a 1.81% conversion rate across the 440 million Microsoft 365 subscribers.”

I'm sorry, that is not fair to ChatGPT.

I use Copilot every day (it is the only assistant that does not need Google Play Services), and it is a complete buffoon in voice. Like, actually painful to use.

I know it is supposed based on the 4o family, but it must be based on 4o-mini or something. Plus, its context window for voice is goldfish bad, on the order of low minutes (~2). And worse, you cannot write a system-level prompt for it. I am shocked at the 1.81%; I would have expected it to be much lower.

ChatGPT is better on every front. It passes the “if you tweak it, you can mostly get it to do what you want” test. Copilot, not so much.

Title should have been more specific: "ChatGPT loses half of its 20M paid subscribers since April"

Although the numbers don't make sense, they announced 3M in June: https://www.cnbc.com/2025/06/04/openai-chatgpt-enterprise-ai...

February: 2M, April: 20M, June: 3M, October: 10M

All the chatter about subscriber numbers distracts from the fact that they're burning way too much capital to ever make a profit.
sinuhe69•4mo ago
I think changing the headline like that is not encouraged. If one find the fact that ChatGPT loses half of its paid subscribers, one should perhaps write an own article with data and other facts and not changed the headline of a linked article. Or did the site change it themselves?

Anecdotally, I increased mine to 2.

One was not enough weekly quota for heavy codex-cli use.
