How quickly did paid AI adoption grow among Vimeo subscribers?
Paid AI-tool adoption among a fixed cohort of 2,278 paid Vimeo subscribers increased from approximately 13% in H1 2024 to 29% in H1 2026. The fixed cohort means the increase reflects changes in the measured subscribers' behavior rather than panel turnover.
When did Vimeo subscriber adoption accelerate most?
The steepest supplied increase occurred from H2 2025 to H1 2026, when the share paying for OpenAI, Anthropic, or Midjourney rose from 19% to 29%.
What does paid AI overlap mean for Vimeo?
Nearly three in ten measured Vimeo subscribers were also paying for a major AI tool by H1 2026. That overlap gives Vimeo a concrete audience signal for evaluating AI-assisted creation features and potential integrations, but it does not establish why subscribers bought those tools.
