Faxing into the future: top industries paying for fax services

It seems that all anyone can talk about these days is AI adoption (guilty), but what about adoption of old-school tech?
As it turns out, several industries still give a fax.

From January through September 2026, 13.3% of U.S. healthcare businesses using Ramp paid a fax-service provider. In the finance and insurance industry, it was 10%.
These figures measure identified payments among Ramp businesses, not fax usage across every American company. Still, they document something tangible.
Fax-service providers may not be bringing in machine-learning money, but these stats show their paper is still surprisingly relevant.
