OpenAI offers up to 90% discounts to win Anthropic customers

Rippling, Replit and DataCamp say they cut AI costs by up to 90 percent after switching to OpenAI. Anthropic's growth has reportedly slowed, and Chinese rivals such as DeepSeek add further price pressure.

Why it matters: OpenAI is trading margin for share, which squeezes Anthropic as it reportedly struggles to secure compute ahead of an IPO. Heavy discounting also signals frontier model pricing is commoditizing, which favors buyers who can switch providers easily.
