Why it matters
Low vendor stickiness poses strategic and financial risks for major AI developers relying on predictable enterprise software recurring revenue. For buyers, the willingness to switch platforms underscores the advantages of multi-model architectures that minimise vendor lock-in. Investors may need to reassess customer retention projections and unit economics across foundational model companies.
