ChatGPT leads the 15 most visited AI tools in 2026

ChatGPT recorded 5.32 billion website visits in June 2026, exceeding the combined 4.7 billion visits recorded by the next 14 AI tools in a ranking of the world’s most visited artificial intelligence platforms.

Google’s Gemini ranked second with 1.14 billion visits, followed by Anthropic’s Claude with 967.91 million. Canva, Google Translate and China’s DeepSeek completed the top six, according to data from AITools.xyz, modelled on traffic data from SEMrush and Ahrefs.

The figures show how traffic is distributed across the AI industry, with ChatGPT accounting for approximately 53 per cent of the 9.97 billion visits recorded by the 15 platforms combined. Its lead highlights the challenge facing other providers seeking to attract users as new AI products continue to emerge.

The ranking covers website visits in June 2026 and excludes usage through mobile applications and application programming interfaces (APIs). The figures therefore do not represent total platform usage across all channels.

The country breakdown also highlights the presence of American companies, with 12 of the 15 platforms based in the United States. Canva, DeepSeek and Magnific represent Australia, China and Spain, respectively.

The platforms serve different purposes, ranging from general AI assistants and search services to design, productivity, translation and music generation. Their positions reflect website traffic rather than a direct comparison of their capabilities or business performance.

The figures provide a measure of where online attention was concentrated during June. While ChatGPT maintains a substantial lead, the presence of other platforms shows that users continue to visit services built around different tasks.

As AI becomes part of more online products, providers will seek not only to attract visits to standalone websites but also to become part of the tools people use to work, search for information, communicate and create.

Here are the 15 most visited AI tools in the ranking and what their positions reveal about the market.

1. ChatGPT: 5.32 billion visits

ChatGPT, developed by OpenAI in the United States, ranked first with 5.32 billion website visits in June 2026.

Its traffic exceeded the combined visits of the other 14 platforms on the list, establishing a gap between the leading AI assistant and its competitors.

Since its launch in November 2022, ChatGPT has become a tool for tasks ranging from answering questions and drafting documents to writing code, analysing information and generating ideas.

Its position at the top of the ranking indicates the scale of its website audience. However, the figures measure visits rather than individual users, so they do not establish how many people use the platform or how often each person returns.

2. Google Gemini: 1.14 billion visits

Google’s Gemini ranked second with 1.14 billion visits, making it the closest competitor to ChatGPT by website traffic.

Despite its position, Gemini recorded about one-fifth of ChatGPT’s visits during the month. The difference between the two platforms also shows the distance other AI providers must cover to approach the leading service.

Gemini is Google’s AI assistant, offering capabilities that include text generation, information analysis and support for tasks across Google’s product ecosystem.

Its second-place ranking places Google among the main providers competing for users seeking AI assistance online.

3. Anthropic’s Claude: 967.91 million visits

Claude, developed by American AI company Anthropic, ranked third with 967.91 million website visits.

The platform is used for tasks such as writing, coding, document analysis and research. Its position places it behind Gemini but ahead of every other tool in the ranking.

Claude’s monthly traffic was close to one billion visits, although it remained below the figures recorded by the two platforms above it.

The result places three American AI assistants in the first three positions, underlining the role of US companies in the website traffic captured by the ranking.

4. Canva: 759.76 million visits

Canva ranked fourth with 759.76 million visits. Unlike the AI assistants in the first three positions, Canva is a design platform that also offers AI-powered tools.

Users can create presentations, social media graphics, documents and other visual materials through its website.

The Australian company was the highest-ranked non-US platform in the list. Its position also demonstrates that AI-related traffic extends beyond chatbots to services that incorporate artificial intelligence into existing products.

5. Google Translate: 343.02 million visits

Google Translate recorded 343.02 million visits to rank fifth.

The translation service allows users to convert text between languages and supports communication across language barriers. Its inclusion reflects the range of activities covered by the ranking, which includes established online services alongside AI assistants and generative tools.

Google Translate’s traffic was less than half of Canva’s and about one-sixteenth of ChatGPT’s.

Its position also means Google had two products among the top five, with Gemini and Google Translate serving different user needs.

6. DeepSeek: 318.81 million visits

DeepSeek, developed in China, ranked sixth with 318.81 million website visits.

The platform gained attention as an alternative in the AI assistant market, where companies compete on model performance, accessibility and the tasks their products can handle.

DeepSeek was one of three non-US platforms in the top 15, alongside Australia’s Canva and Spain’s Magnific.

Its ranking places a Chinese AI provider among the services attracting substantial website traffic, although its recorded visits remained below those of the five platforms ahead of it.

7. Grok: 189.89 million visits

Grok, developed by xAI in the United States, ranked seventh with 189.89 million visits.

The AI assistant offers conversational responses and other generative AI functions. Its position places it among the platforms competing for users seeking answers, explanations and assistance with everyday tasks.

Grok recorded fewer than one-fifth of Claude’s visits, showing the difference in traffic between the third-ranked service and those in the second half of the ranking.

8. JanitorAI: 173.17 million visits

JanitorAI ranked eighth with 173.17 million visits.

The platform focuses on AI-powered character interactions and conversations, distinguishing it from services centred on workplace productivity, research or general-purpose assistance.

Its position shows that specialised platforms can attract substantial website traffic even when they serve a narrower set of purposes than general AI assistants.

9. Character AI: 165.46 million visits

Character AI recorded 165.46 million visits to rank ninth.

The platform allows users to interact with AI-generated characters and participate in conversations based on different personalities and scenarios.

Its ranking alongside JanitorAI indicates the presence of conversational entertainment platforms within the wider AI market.

Although both services ranked below Grok, their visits placed them ahead of several tools designed for research, productivity and business use.

10. Perplexity: 140.7 million visits

Perplexity ranked tenth with 140.7 million visits.

The US-based platform focuses on AI-assisted search and research, providing responses that draw on information retrieved from online sources.

Its approach places it among the services seeking to change how people find and process information on the internet.

Perplexity’s position in the top 10 shows that AI-powered search remains part of the market, even as general-purpose assistants attract more visits.

11. Magnific: 116.84 million visits

Magnific, associated with Spain-based Freepik, recorded 116.84 million visits.

The platform focuses on image enhancement and AI-powered visual creation. Its inclusion in the ranking reflects demand for tools that support creative work rather than text-based conversations alone.

Magnific was the third non-US platform in the top 15 and ranked ahead of Notion, Zoom and Microsoft Copilot.

12. Notion: 110.64 million visits

Notion ranked 12th with 110.64 million visits.

The US-based productivity platform supports note-taking, documentation, project management and collaboration. Its AI features allow users to work with information within the platform.

Notion’s position highlights the role of AI in productivity software, where users can apply the technology to existing workflows rather than visit a separate chatbot.

13. Zoom: 96.24 million visits

Zoom recorded 96.24 million visits to rank 13th.

Known for its video conferencing service, the company has also incorporated AI features into its products to support meeting summaries, information retrieval and workplace collaboration.

Its appearance in the ranking reflects the expansion of AI capabilities into communication tools.

14. Microsoft Copilot: 92.72 million visits

Microsoft Copilot ranked 14th with 92.72 million visits.

The platform offers AI assistance for tasks such as answering questions, generating content and supporting productivity.

Its position places it below Zoom and Notion in this website traffic ranking, despite Microsoft’s presence across workplace software and digital services.

The figures, however, do not capture all Copilot activity within Microsoft’s applications, so website visits alone cannot establish the platform’s total reach.

15. Suno: 81.84 million visits

Suno completed the ranking with 81.84 million visits.

The US-based platform allows users to generate music with AI, including songs created from text prompts.

Its inclusion demonstrates that the market extends into music production and other creative activities, beyond search, writing and workplace productivity.

Although Suno recorded the fewest visits among the 15 platforms, its monthly traffic exceeded 80 million, according to the ranking.
