## Description



## Transcript

Hot damn. Open AAI adding a billion dollar of revenue of annual recurring revenue of ARR. That's $83 million a month in one month. They added a billy of revenue based on their API. A lot of people think OpenAI, they think Chat GBT. Obviously, that's a massive business, very consumer, but of API, a huge accomplishment. To add that ARR in one month is just insane. Pretty cool that stainless gets to be a small part of it. We generate the SDKs. We know that helps with adoption.
