Stripe's annual letter revealed that artificial intelligence startups are growing more rapidly than traditional SaaS companies have historically. The top 100 AI companies achieved $5 million in annualized revenue in 24 months, compared to the top 100 SaaS companies taking 37 months to reach the same milestone. Stripe CEO Patrick Collison attributes this growth to the development of industry-specific AI tools that are helping players "properly realize the economic impact of LLMs."
