The 2025 State of AI Report

In the 2025 State of AI Report, OpenRouter and a16z highlight a significant shift in the landscape of language models, noting the transition from single-pass, autoregressive systems to multi-step reasoning models and agentic workflows, largely driven by the launch of OpenAI's o1 model. This new era has seen rapid advancements not only in proprietary models but also in open-weight models, which have become integral to production applications. The report serves as a comprehensive empirical analysis of how developers and organizations utilize language models, drawing insights from over 100 trillion tokens of global LLM traffic data. The findings aim to equip model builders, business leaders, and researchers with a deeper understanding of AI's current applications, guiding future investments and development in AI technology.
