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.

“With Ramp, everything lives in one place. You can click into a vendor and see every transaction, invoice, and contract. That didn’t exist in Zip. It’s made approvals much faster because decision-makers aren’t chasing down information—they have it all at their fingertips.”

“The ability to create flexible parameters, such as allowing bookings up to 25% above market rate, has been really good for us. Plus, having all the information within the same platform is really valuable.”

“More vendors are allowing for discounts now, because they’re seeing the quick payment. That started with Ramp—getting everyone paid on time. We’ll get a 1-2% discount for paying early. That doesn’t sound like a lot, but when you’re dealing with hundreds of millions of dollars, it does add up.”
James Hardy
CFO, SAM Construction Group
“We’ve simplified our workflows while improving accuracy, and we are faster in closing with the help of automation. We could not have achieved this without the solutions Ramp brought to the table.”

“I was shocked at how easy it was to set up Ramp and get our end users to adopt it. Our prior procurement platform took six months to implement, and it was a lot of labor. Ramp was so easy it was almost scary.”
