ChatGPT usage tops 80% on Overchat AI

A new usage report by Overchat AI reveals that despite an influx of new AI models in Q1 2026, GPT-5.5's market share has surged to over 81% from 66% three months prior. OpenAI's newly released GPT-Image-2 has also overtaken Google's Nano Banana models to become the most popular image generation tool, while Sora 2 continues to dominate video generation despite its declining share and impending shutdown.

// ANALYSIS

The data highlights a surprising trend of market consolidation toward OpenAI rather than fragmentation as new models are released.

–GPT-5.5's generalist capabilities seem to outweigh the specialized focus of newer models.
–Users surprisingly stick with older models like Claude Opus 4.6 when newer versions like Opus 4.7 are perceived to degrade in quality.
–For image generation, users prioritize high quality over cost and speed, driving adoption of GPT-Image-2 over cheaper alternatives like Nano Banana 2.
–OpenAI's models remain the default choice for the vast majority of mainstream users, leaving deep-pocketed competitors like Anthropic and Google fighting for scraps.
