AI Usage Tracker

The Most Current View of AI Usage in America

The AI Usage Tracker from Edison Research at SSRS is a subscription research service that monitors awareness and usage of AI platforms across the U.S. adult population. Updated twice a month using the probability-based SSRS Opinion Panel, it gives subscribers a reliable, nationally representative view of who’s using AI, which platforms they’re choosing, and how that’s changing over time. With 100+ demographic variables available to append to the data, subscribers can go well beyond the headlines to gain a deep understanding of current trends in AI usage. 

What Sets the AI Usage Tracker Apart?

Always Current

Most AI research is outdated before it reaches your desk. The AI Usage Tracker from Edison Research at SSRS publishes twice a month, so you're always working with fresh data — not last quarter's numbers. Track momentum as it builds, not after the fact.

Platform-Level Detail

It's not just "AI usage." The AI Usage Tracker monitors awareness and weekly usage across ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Copilot, Grok, DeepSeek, and more. Trend lines show what's growing, what's plateauing, and where the competitive picture is shifting.

Deep Demographic Cuts

Cross-tabulate against 100+ demographic and behavioral variables — age, income, industry, employment, political affiliation, technology behavior, and more. Find the signal that's relevant to your question, not just the topline numbers everyone already has.
