With the artificial intelligence (AI) landscape no longer just a speculative buzz, it is not just about finding companies that mention AI in their business operations.
Retail investors must now find those that can successfully monetise AI.
Here are five AI-related companies which can help supercharge your investment profile.
NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ: NVDA)
NVIDIA reported a revenue of US$215.9 billion for its fiscal year 2026 (FY2026), ending 25 January 2026.
Compared to the same period last year, this is an increase of 65%.
Operating income rose 60% year on year (YoY) from US$81.5 billion to US$130.4 billion, while net profit climbed 65% YoY, hitting US$120.1 billion.
Free cash flow reached US$96.7 billion, up 59% YoY (FY2025: US$60.9 billion).
NVIDIA provided a revenue outlook of US$78.0 billion for its first quarter of fiscal 2027 (1Q FY2027), with official results scheduled for release on 20 May 2026.
Should these projections hold, it will represent a 77% growth compared to the US$44.1 billion reported in the same quarter last year (1Q FY2026).
C3.ai Inc (NYSE:AI)
Next on the list is C3.ai, which specialises in building and providing large-scale AI applications for industrial and corporate use.
For the third quarter of fiscal 2026 (Q3 FY2026), ending 31 January 2026, the company posted a revenue of US$53.3 million.
Compared to the US$98.8 million recorded in Q3 FY2025, this reflects a 46% YoY dip which was primarily due to poor operational execution and the company’s ongoing restructuring plan.
However, subscription revenue remained strong, contributing US$48.2 million, which accounts for 90% of total revenue.
C3.ai has also seen significant traction within its Defense and Government sectors, where total bookings surged 134% YoY.
Alphabet Inc (NASDAQ: GOOGL)
Alphabet’s total revenue hit US$402.8 billion in 2025, a 15% increase from FY2024’s US$350.0 billion.
Google Search and Others segment remains the company’s strongest revenue engine, delivering US$224.5 billion in 2025.
This made up more than half of the company’s total revenue.
Operating profit rose 15% YoY from US$112.4 billion to US$129.0 billion, while operating margin remained steady at 32%.
Net profit saw a significant jump of 32% YoY to US$132.2 billion.
Besides its search business, Alphabet has solidified its long-term competitive position by securing a multi-year deal with Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL).
This deal will allow Alphabet’s Gemini models to power Apple‘s AI foundation models, which in turn will power Siri, with the integration set for later this year.
Advanced Micro Devices Inc (NASDAQ: AMD)
Another company to consider is AMD, a designer of high-performance processors and graphics chips for data centres, personal computers, and industrial applications.
The company’s data centre business – supplying both its EPYC server processors and Instinct AI accelerators – has become its largest revenue segment, and is central to its AI growth story.
Its annual revenue increased 34% YoY to US$34.6 billion in 2025.
Operating income jumped to US$3.7 billion, almost double the US$1.9 billion recorded last year.
Net income saw a spectacular increase, leaping from US$1.6 billion to US$4.3 billion.
Palantir Technologies Inc (NASDAQ: PLTR)
Palantir was initially built to assist the US intelligence community with counterterrorism initiatives.
Since then, the company has scaled its operations into the commercial sector.
Currently it operates four primary platforms: Gotham, Foundry, Apollo, and Artificial Intelligence Platform (AIP).
For 2025, the company reported a revenue of US$4.5 billion, an increase of 56.2% when compared to last year’s US$2.9 billion.
Operating income leaped more than fourfold YoY from US$310.4 million to US$1.4 billion.
Meanwhile, net profit more than doubled YoY to US$1.6 billion.
Free cash flow grew from US$1.1 billion to US$2.1 billion 2025.
