Every month, Ramp processes billions of dollars in business expenses on its corporate card and bill pay platform. And every month, we rank the new vendors that customers are purchasing from for the first time to give you a glimpse into emerging market trends, companies on the rise, and much more.
This month, we updated our methodology to include spend on Ramp’s Bill Pay platform (previous versions of our Top SaaS Vendors list only included corporate card spend). Adding bill pay to our transaction set delivers a more accurate list of trending vendors, capturing a broader set of money movements from a larger group of buyers and sellers.
Here’s a breakdown of the top SaaS vendors last month:
By new customer count | By new spend |
|---|---|
1. OpenAI | 1. HubSpot |
2. Canva | 2. Carta |
3. LinkedIn | 3. NetSuite |
4. Anthropic | 4. LinkedIn |
5. GoDaddy | 5. Adobe |
And the fastest-growing vendors:
By largest percentage change in new customer count | By largest percentage change in new spend |
|---|---|
1. Google One | 1. Carta |
2. Anthropic | 2. NetSuite |
3. Descript | 3. CCC Intelligent Solutions |
4. n8n.io | 4. PostPilot |
5. Lindy.ai | 5. Procore |
Top takeaways
- Google One, a Google subscription targeting consumers, launched AI Pro and AI Ultra last month, driving new subscriptions and, for the first time, placing Google on our top vendors list. Google’s Gemini model still lags OpenAI and Anthropic in business adoption according to our latest Ramp AI Index release (2.3% of businesses subscribe to Google’s AI tools, compared to 33.9% for OpenAI), but placement on this list suggests businesses are starting to take advantage of Google’s latest 2.5 Pro models, popular with coders.
- Note that Google integrates Gemini for free in all Workspace plans. Google One’s placement on this list—a product not designed for businesses—suggests employees are signing up for Gemini using their personal accounts or at smaller businesses that haven’t yet switched to enterprise Workspace plans.
- OpenAI and Anthropic continue to lead the pack among AI companies in total new customers added last month.
- Descript is an end-to-end video editor designed to make videos optimized for social media feeds and algorithms. Descript uses integrated AI to remove filler words, upgrade and enhance voices with studio sound, and add subtitles with automatic transcriptions. As social media platforms increasingly promote video, teams can use Descript to easily create short-form videos without the help of an editor.
- AI workflow automation software n8n uses a drag-and-drop interface to integrate AI agents into IT, developer, and sales workflows. Users tell us that n8n’s greatest strength is its customizability, including the ability to add a human-review step into agentic workflows.
- Lindy.ai is another AI workflow automation tool built for sales, customer support, and recruitment. Users told us they use Lindy to take sales templates and customize them for individual leads to drive higher conversion rates.

“I assumed I would have to choose between speed and control. What I found is that you can have both. A well-designed system takes friction out, for the finance function and for everyone else.”

“A well-run district should not have to choose between getting work done at the school site and keeping control of the dollars behind it. We're not hiring more people to do more jobs, so we have to be smarter about the process. With Ramp, the purchase, the receipt, and the record stay together from the start. ”

Director of Purchasing, San Marcos Unified School District
“AI is moving faster than the finance context around it. Prices change, models change, and the value is not always obvious from an invoice. We needed enough detail to know which bets deserved more investment — and which ones did not.”
Greg Cooley
Controller, AngelList
“Invoices, cards, tokens. The categories change but the principle doesn't: know where the money is going, remove the work around it, and make sure the spend is worth it.”

“There's just no surprises anymore. No more waiting two months to find out how a job did. We know how it's doing as it's happening.”

“More token spend isn’t proof that AI is working. Less isn’t proof that it isn’t. What matters is whether we’re buying the right level of intelligence for the work. Ramp lets us make that judgment in the same place we manage every other type of spend.”

Senior Director of Business Systems, Daxko
“Most banks treat the back office as a cost to keep down. We treat ours as a return to compound, which is why we run it on Ramp. Now we put our clients on Ramp, too.”

“Browserbase builds infrastructure so AI agents can do real work. Ramp is doing the same for finance. It’s not another tool. It’s a system purpose-built for AI-driven finance, and that’s why we chose Ramp as our financial operating system from day one.”

Founder & CEO, Browserbase
