    Ramp data shows AI spending stagnation, as Anthropic's IPO is approaching.

    Ramp's report shows that corporate token spending only increased by 1.5% from August to September, while it grew by 42% month-on-month in July, and token usage is still rising. Ara Kharazian, chief economist at Ramp, believes that the price cuts by OpenAI and Anthropic and corporate discounts make AI usage cheaper, and the top 1% of spending companies are slightly below the monthly per capita peak of $10,000 in summer. Ramp data shows AI spending stagnation, coinciding with Anthropic's upcoming IPO. Ramp's spending data gives a price signal opposite to usage growth, which can be used to observe the tension between model companies' revenue and IPO valuations.
