Every claim in this video comes from the top ranking coverage of this topic. The claims and where each one came from:
- Pollo AI reports that users spend more than 50% less time choosing or switching models, giving them more time for creativity. The page also states: 'Today, Pollo AI serves more than 26 million users who use the platform to create videos, ads, and visual content.' and quotes Peter Zhou, CTO, Pollo AI: 'If we receive any task from a user to generate an image, we always use GPT-Image-2.5.' Pollo AI uses GPT-5.6 for routing and GPT-6 Astra for more challenging work such as developing a narrative or planning scene revisions. Verified absence: no methodology, no baseline, no third party verification of any figure, and no product release dated to the publication day.(First-party OpenAI page at openai.com, on-page date October 8, 2026, headline 'Pollo AI turns creative ideas into campaigns with OpenAI', published in OpenAI's customer story template with the fields Company size Startup, Region Asia-Pacific & Oceania, Industry Technology, Media, Entertainment & Sport, and Products API. It is a customer story written by OpenAI about its own customer Pollo AI, so every performance figure in it, including the more than 26 million users count, the 30% of creator sessions figure and the more than 50% less time claim, was supplied by Pollo AI or by OpenAI rather than measured by any outside party. The YouTube transcript pull returned zero corroborating transcripts and timeline-probes.json held only unrelated dated video titles, so this single page is the sole source for every claim in this script.)
