New Similarweb data shows Claude grew from 203M visits in January to 824M in April, now the third-largest consumer AI chatbot at 12.5% US share. ChatGPT's worldwide web-visit share fell from ~76.5% (Feb 2025) to 54.7%, Gemini doubled to 27.4%. The assistant market is genuinely fragmenting. Claude is a mainstream consumer destination now, not just a dev tool, which is a strange thing to type as someone who's used it daily for two years as exactly a dev tool.
