New monthly visits here mean users who had not visited in the past 30 days going to the site. Deepseek had ~524 million in March, OpenAI had ~500 million.
In terms of total monthly visitors ChatGPT was still far ahead with 5.2 billion to DeepSeek's 792 million.

How do you even get 5.2 billion unique users when the total population on the internet is 5.5 billion?
They said total monthly visitors, not unique. I probably open it 15 times a month.

More than one device would be my guess.
Also, Claude at 0.93%, lmao.
brrrrrm
how is this data collected?

>Our AI industry web traffic analysis is based on estimated data from reliable sources such as SEMrush and Ahrefs. We track 10,500+ AI tools across 171 categories, updating data every month. We analyze total visits, unique visits, user demographics, and more across the categories to provide insights into the AI industry’s size, trends, and top performers.
>Unique visits represent cumulative monthly counts, meaning returning users in different months are counted again. The total unique visits for all tools combined do not represent distinct individuals due to user overlap across multiple AI tools. For a closer estimate of the AI industry's audience size, refer to the latest month's unique visit count.
That website is a cancer. There is 5% content in the screen and rest is all banner ads.

And they also force their front page into the browser history, hijacking the back button. I'll be adding this site to my blacklist.

Why no adblocker?

Because of course, we trust China more than USA. Unironically. Chinese services explicitly say that they collect our data, while American services try to hide it as most as they can. Doesn't mean they're better, but being clear is better than not.

No wonder, China has a very large population.

Is DeepSeek technically open source?

DeepSeek-R1 and DeepSeek-V3 is open-source. Code, weights, and model are released under MIT.

Chinese are unable to visit ChatGPT.

Yeah, I haven't actually thought about why but I use DeepSeek for everything now. Never went back to other things after its release. It just works.

Yes I have completely switched to using DeepSeek for everything. It is better than Anthropic, OpenAI in everyway.
