OpenAI said it closed a $122 billion funding round at an $852 billion post-money valuation, giving the company another large capital base to expand AI infrastructure, product development, and enterprise deployment. The company said the round was anchored by Amazon, NVIDIA, and SoftBank, with continued participation from Microsoft, while SoftBank co-led alongside a16z, D. E. Shaw Ventures, MGX, TPG, and accounts advised by T. Rowe Price Associates. OpenAI also said it expanded its revolving credit facility to about $4.7 billion, and that the facility remained undrawn at close.
The company tied the financing directly to rapid commercial growth across consumer, enterprise, and developer markets. OpenAI said ChatGPT now has more than 900 million weekly active users and over 50 million subscribers, while enterprise accounts for more than 40% of revenue. It also said revenue reached $2 billion per month, API traffic now exceeds 15 billion tokens per minute, and Codex serves more than 2 million weekly users after 5x growth in the past three months.
OpenAI framed compute as the central lever behind its next phase, saying it has broadened infrastructure beyond a small set of providers over the past 15 months. The company said its cloud footprint now spans Microsoft, Oracle, AWS, CoreWeave, and Google Cloud; its silicon strategy spans NVIDIA, AMD, AWS Trainium, Cerebras, and an in-house chip effort with Broadcom; and its data center partnerships include Oracle, SBE, and SoftBank. OpenAI also said it is building a unified “AI superapp” that combines ChatGPT, Codex, browsing, and broader agentic capabilities into a single product surface.

🌐 Analysis: This announcement lands just over a month after OpenAI disclosed a separate $110 billion investment package at a $730 billion pre-money valuation, underscoring how quickly capital formation around frontier AI infrastructure is accelerating in 2026. OpenAI’s updated partner list also shows a more diversified stack than earlier phases of its buildout, combining hyperscale clouds, multiple chip platforms, and data center partners as competition intensifies with hyperscalers and model providers racing to secure compute, distribution, and enterprise share.
