a16z’s Olivia Moore publishes State of Markets report on top 100 consumer AI apps
Olivia Moore, a partner at Andreessen Horowitz, released a 'State of Markets' report ranking the top 100 consumer AI apps; it finds ChatGPT still dominant while smaller players like Suno and ElevenLabs show staying power and highlights major whitespace in categories such as social, dating, marketplaces, retail, travel, finance and health. Moore argues the consumer AI market’s economics remain unusual — revenue is concentrated in subscriptions and pro/prosumer use cases — and urges new monetization approaches and cheaper models to expand true consumer adoption.
