The median US company spends approximately $11 per employee on artificial intelligence software, according to recent spending data analyzed by corporate card and finance automation platform Ramp. The data highlights a substantial divergence across enterprise spending, with top spenders investing significantly more on specialized AI infrastructure, productivity tools, and software integrations compared to the median enterprise. Ramp's analysis provides a benchmark for how corporate adoption of AI is evolving beyond early pilot projects into standard corporate operational expenses, though per-employee budget allocation remains modest across the broader mid-market.
