Looking for a new AI app to try out or curious to see which ones are showing promise?
Well, the good news is Andreessen Horowitz just released its third installment of Top 100 Gen AI Consumer Apps, which rounds up the most-used apps in the space. It's an excellent way to find some lesser-known apps that are gaining traction — and see how the big players in the space are stacking up against each other.
Every six months, the venture capital firm ranks the top 50 AI-first web products by unique monthly visits and the top 50 AI-first mobile apps by monthly active users.
Unsurprisingly, OpenAI's ChatGPT remains king, topping both lists for the third time.
However, other AI chatbots are stiffening the competition. Perplexity and Claude both broke into the top five for web products, jumping from 7th and 10th to 3rd and 4th, respectively.
Apps like Microsoft Edge and Photomath remained in 2nd and 3rd place, respectively, and Character.AI rose from 3rd place to replace Gemini in 2nd for web products.
While the AI giants continue to battle it out, some newer rising stars are also making inroads — and getting people creative.
Of the 12 new entrants to the list, 58% are creative tools focused on content generation or editing images, videos, music, speech, and more, according to the study. These included Luma (14th), which can create realistic 3D images; Viggle (21st), an AI-powered animation tool that can make any character move via text prompts; and AI art generator SeaArt (29th).
Music has also been having its AI moment. Music generator app Suno — which lets you easily make an AI song based on a text prompt — made the biggest jump for creative tools, rising from 36th to 5th in web products. Newcomer Udio, another generative model that produces songs via text prompts, ranked 33rd.
Content editing for images and video was also a huge hit for mobile rankings, with breakouts from tools like Meitu (9th), SNOW (30th), and Adobe Express (35th).
Users are not only into creating but also dating. AI-powered dating app RIZZ made the mobile list for the first time, ranking 49th. Aesthetics apps like LooksMax AI and Umax were also new entrants, ranking 43rd and 44th, respectively.
