Grafana Labs announces more than 10,000 customers and annual recurring revenue above $600 million. The average number of products per contracted customer rises from 2.3 to 4.4.

### Background On 26 August 2026, **Grafana Labs** announced it had passed **10,000 customers** worldwide, with **annual recurring revenue (ARR) above $600 million**. The vendor, born from the open source Grafana visualization tool, attributes the growth to AI adoption and the broadening of its observability platform. Its CEO, Raj Dutt, says the average customer now uses more than four Grafana products. ### Key facts - Average products per contracted customer: from 2.3 to 4.4; 87.8% of contracted customers use at least two products, 64.9% at least four. - More than 18,000 organizations use Grafana Assistant; 251,000 monthly active Grafana Cloud users (up from 127,000) and 66,000 self-serve active organizations (up from 42,000). - 57% of organizations are implementing observability for applications based on large language models (LLMs). - Adaptive Telemetry: 28.5 billion metric series optimized, 26 PB of log volume saved, typical cost reduction of 30 to 50%. - Grafana Labs is recognized as a "Leader" in the 2026 Gartner Magic Quadrant for observability platforms, for the third year in a row. ### Why it matters In a market consolidating through acquisitions (Splunk, Chronosphere, Observe), Grafana Labs remains an independent vendor built on open source and OpenTelemetry. The cost of telemetry becomes a governance topic, hence the interest of optimization features that reduce stored volumes. For services firms and SRE teams, it is a credible alternative to large vendors, to be compared on total cost and ease of operation. The figures are the vendor's. ### Takeaway Grafana Labs grows independently while its competitors get acquired.
