What happened

Year-over-year ChatGPT has lost significant ground (down from 73.3 percent), while Gemini doubled its share and Anthropic's Claude grew from 1.9 to 9.3 percent. Similarweb data shows ChatGPT still dominates AI chatbot website traffic and has recently regained share, climbing from 52.7 percent three months ago to 55.5 percent. Google Gemini, after a strong comeback, is slipping again from 27.8 to 25.6 percent. ChatGPT has pushed its share of AI chatbot website traffic back up to 55.5 percent, according to Similarweb.

Why it matters

ChatGPT claws back web traffic share to 55.5 percent as Gemini's changes how local AI workloads can be distributed across existing devices. Engineering teams should test routing reliability, hardware compatibility, latency, and failure recovery before treating the network as shared inference capacity. The supporting evidence reports 73.3 percent, giving teams a concrete baseline to verify in their own environment.
