a16z's new AI app ranking shows what people actually pay for

Venture firm Andreessen Horowitz's seventh top 100 consumer AI apps report now ranks tools by what U.S. consumers actually spend. Creative tools rank high: Suno is #7 and ElevenLabs #10 on spending, while Canva and Photoroom made every list.

Why it matters

According to YipitData's U.S. card panels, which sample users rather than count everyone, the median paying user spends $25 a month. Only 13% of people who pay for one AI tool pay for a second. That gives you a handy benchmark if your subscriptions have quietly piled up. The author invests in AI for a16z, so read the market framing with that in mind.

Your moveAdd up last month's AI charges on your card statement and compare the total with the $25 median before you sign up for another tool.
