Basis of the call
Production adoption
OpenAI is the only company here with tracked package downloads at 11.2M/mo.
Package downloads show how many teams run this in production - the strongest signal of real-world trust.
Installed base
OpenAI is the only company here with a tracked dependent-package footprint.
Dependent packages mean other open-source projects rely on this - a multiplier for ecosystem stability.
Code adoption
OpenAI is the only company here with tracked repository-import evidence.
Repository imports show developers writing production code against this, not just installing or starring it.
Maintenance capacity
OpenAI has the more active contributor base at 22 contributors/day.
Active contributors reduce the risk of choosing a tool that stalls or becomes abandonware.
OpenAI operates in Foundation Models; Writesonic in Content Writing. These companies serve different developer needs, so adoption numbers reflect different types of engagement.
