Character.ai Catches Up to ChatGPT in Mobile App Usage

Character.ai, the AI character app, is making waves in mobile app usage, catching up to ChatGPT! With 4.2 million monthly users in the U.S., it's growing fast since its May 2023 launch.

Launched in May 2023, Character.ai has quickly gained 4.2 million monthly active users in the U.S., showcasing impressive growth in a short time. 

While installs don't always translate to active users, Character.ai's ability to retain and grow its user base sets it apart. The mobile app landscape is competitive, with many apps struggling to maintain user engagement.

On the web, ChatGPT still holds a lead, but Character.ai's younger user demographic prefers the mobile experience. Nearly 60% of Character.ai's audience is aged 18-24, making it a hit among young users. 

ChatGPT saw declines in web traffic and time spent on its website, but it's rebounding with the school year resuming. The competition is heating up in the AI character space. 

Character.ai has a bright future with $150 million in Series A funding, and its founders' expertise in AI makes it a promising player in the market. Time will tell if it's here to stay or just another AI trend. 

We'll keep an eye on how Character.ai continues to evolve and whether it maintains its growth. Stay tuned for more updates!
