OpenAI Strengthens Enterprise Revenue With Codex

OpenAI is intensifying its enterprise push, announcing that API operations added more than $1 billion in annual recurring revenue in a single month and that annualized revenue exceeded $20 billion in 2025. The company plans Codex updates that raise the model to a "High" cybersecurity risk level and is deploying ROI tools and sales changes as it contests Anthropic's 40% enterprise market share.
