Consumers who pay for AI have been increasingly choosing Anthropic s Claude, trend data from credit card transaction analysis company Indagari shows.
This is a sign that the AI lab has a wider and healthier set of customers than the niche it is generally considered to command — enterprise and startup developers using Claude Code.
Indagari analyzes billions of anonymized credit card transactions from about 28 million U.
So while that data can t give us absolute numbers about Anthropic s revenue or total customers, it is a large enough sampling to spot trends.
And the trend, in Anthropic s case, is up and to the right.

It shows Claude s paying consumers and revenue growing, month by month, currently up about 75% since January 2026 among this segment.
Notably, the gains continued even after the company saw a growth spike from consumers in March , when it refused to allow its models to be used by the Trump administration for mass surveillance of Americans and autonomous weapons.

Interest in Claude among consumers on DataCamp has exploded since the start of the year.
Claude is now the most searched term on its site, even more than the term AI, DataCamp tells TechCrunch.
While ChatGPT courses are still far more popular with businesses doing corporate training, among self-directed consumers, demand for Claude courses is outpacing ChatGPT by three to one, the company says.
Demand for courses on Claude has increased 18x in the last 30 days alone, it says.

For instance, recent data from market intelligence firm Sensor Tower shows Claude growing well this year across all platforms, but still a long way behind ChatGPT.
Image Credits: Sensor Tower While ChatGPT s growth has, the data implies, been more modest of late (largely due to its already enormous reach), it still has many more paying users, the Indagari data indicates.

It s especially unclear what impact Anthropic s latest battle with the U.
government will have on its business.
Earlier this month, the government banned Anthropic from allowing its most powerful , cybersecurity-focused models, Mythos 5 and Fable 5, from being used by non-Americans, causing the AI lab to pull them from the market altogether for now.
So far, though, every glimpse at data we can find shows Anthropic continuing to grow both its consumer and business/enterprise users.
