ChatGPT, the most popular AI tool in January

US-based OpenAI's artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot ChatGPT was the most popular AI tool with 4.7 billion monthly visits in January, according to the website AITools.

ChatGPT saw a drop in monthly visitor traffic with the launch of China's DeepSeek, but remained at the top of the list from AITools, including AI-generated tools and other tools that have AI-powered features.

Canva, an online graphic design app, ranked second with 887 million monthly visits, while Google Translate followed with 595 million.

China's DeepSeek caused a major drop in artificial intelligence chatbot usage in the US and the US stock market with its release, after the R1 reasoning model, a competitive rival to ChatGPT's premium offering, was released with fully open-source code for free.

DeepSeek's monthly user count grew over 2,000% to 268 million in January, showing the fastest monthly visitor growth among other AI tools, while at the same time ChatGPT's user count fell 2%.

CharacterAI ranks fifth with 226 million, followed by JanitorAI with 200 million, Perplexity with 133 million, and Google's Gemini with 118 million monthly users.

Gemini visitor numbers fell over 9% in January with the prominence of DeepSeek.

Remove.bg and Claude had 112 million and 105 million monthly users, respectively.

As the AI ​​race between the US and China intensified, the list showed that only one Chinese company made it into the top 10, while the rest were US-based tools.
