All of npm (total downloads)

458B +25.7% yr as of Jun 2026

This line counts every package on npm, not only AI packages. It is a control: the AI lines are a small part of it.

npm downloads

openai

108M +428.2% yr as of Jun 2026

Developers also use this package with other vendors, because those vendors copy OpenAI's API. The true OpenAI number is lower.

ai (Vercel AI SDK)

63.9M +784.8% yr as of Jun 2026

@google/generative-ai

14.1M +264.5% yr as of Jun 2026

This is Google's old Gemini SDK. Developers moved to the new @google/genai, so the fall here shows a move, not less use of Google.
