Over 50% of AI Tools Developed in the United States
There are such a wide range of AI tools available now that people are often left wondering where these weird and wonderful ideas actually originate from. Of the 45 AI tools that we analyzed, 57.7% of them were developed in the United States, including the likes of ChatGPT, Freshchat, Pictory, Genesys and WordAi.
Over 22% was made up by ‘other’ countries, such as Zendesk, which originated in Denmark, Live Chat, which was developed in Poland, and HitPaw, which was created in Hong Kong. Canada is responsible for the development of 6.6% of our chosen AI tools, including Lumen5, Looka and Meya AI.

Methodology:
We began by compiling a list of AI tools using sources such as Neil Patel, Influencer Marketing Hub, HubSpot, Forbes, and Unite.ai.
We then gathered each AI tool’s social media follower count from Twitter and Linkedin. All data is correct as of 28th April 2023 and therefore, follower counts may now differ.
We also used Google Keyword Planner to gather the number of Google searches for each AI tool between April 2022 and March 2023.
We used the business software review site, G2, to gather the review scores of each AI tool. Scores were not available for the following tools: Quillbot.ai, Gen-1, Cleanup.Pictures, Deep Nostalgia, Soundraw, Lalal.ai, Stable Diffusion 2, EBI.AI, Flick, and Meya AI. All data is correct as of 28th April 2023 and therefore, review scores may now differ.
We also visited the website of each AI tool in order to find out their cost. This included looking at whether each tool could be downloaded for free or not, as well as seeing if there is the option to upgrade to a pro account for an additional cost. ChatGPT runs on a pay-per-token system and therefore wasn’t comparable for price data.
For the overall score, we ranked each AI tool based on the factors mentioned above. We gave each factor a normalized score out of 10, before taking our final overall score as an average across all factors. Due to no review scores being available for the previously mentioned tools, this factor was left out of the overall score for these specific tools. In addition to this, ChatGPT received no score for pricing as the data wasn’t comparable, as previously mentioned.
