ByteDance’s AI business reached $4 billion in annualized recurring revenue, leading Chinese AI companies, according to MLion. Alibaba’s ARR is approximately $1.5 billion, Zhipu AI’s around $1 billion, DeepSeek near $500 million, and Moonshot AI at $300 million. ARR measures revenue velocity, not actual profits. ByteDance’s AI revenue still trails behind OpenAI and Anthropic. On-chain data reflects growing interest in AI + crypto as the sector expands.
ME AI message, according to monitoring by Beating, the South China Morning Post cited sources stating that ByteDance’s large model business has achieved an annualized recurring revenue (ARR) of $4 billion, ranking first among Chinese AI companies based on currently available data. For comparison, Alibaba’s current ARR is approximately $1.5 billion, Zhipu’s is around $1 billion, DeepSeek is close to $500 million, and Moonshot AI is about $300 million. ByteDance has clearly widened its revenue gap with domestic peers. However, ARR is an extrapolation of current revenue trends over the next year and does not mean $4 billion has already been earned. ByteDance’s AI revenue still remains significantly lower than that of OpenAI and Anthropic. (Source: MLion)
