The product page describes the consumer app: "Use Claude on the web, on desktop, or on your phone." No user count is published on the page (searched the body for monthly active users and million users: none).
- https://seoprofy.com/blog/claude-ai-statistics/ recorded 2026-09-29
Third-party statistics page: "suggest that Claude has around 18.9 million monthly active users worldwide"; "approximately 7.38 million of these users come from the mobile app"; "MAU levels have largely plateaued, indicating a period of stabilization after initial growth."
- https://www.demandsage.com/claude-ai-statistics/ recorded 2026-06-04
third-party estimate ~18.9M web MAU early 2026 (corroborating, not primary). Not re-fetchable - the site answers HTTP 403 - so it stands as a document rather than a live read.
