Frequently asked questions
What is the AI Bubble Index?
The AI Bubble Index measures the gap between what AI companies are valued at versus what they produce in revenue.

The current reading is 278% (frothy).

What is the average AI company P/S ratio?
The average price-to-sales ratio across AI companies with reported revenue is 66.1x. The healthy SaaS benchmark is 15x. A ratio above 30x suggests the market is pricing in extraordinary growth expectations.

How does BenchGecko define the AI economy scope?
BenchGecko lets you define what counts as "the AI economy" through scope checkboxes: Pure AI (model providers, apps, dev tools), Big Tech (Google, Microsoft, Meta, Amazon), Chips (NVIDIA, AMD, Broadcom), Fabs (TSMC, ASML), Memory (SK Hynix, Micron), and Energy/DC operators. The Bubble Index recalculates based on your selection.
What is the AI capex-to-revenue gap?
AI infrastructure spending (capex) totals $836B across tracked companies, while total AI revenue is $650B. This gap means the industry is spending more on infrastructure than it earns.
