## Other notable details

- Several Amazon entities appear separately: Amazon Development Center U S Inc (1,654), Amazon Web Services Inc (1,435) and Amazon Data Services Inc (568). The hub lists them as separate employers, so the combined Amazon total is higher than the top-line figure.
- Universities and health systems also make the list, including Stanford (304), University of Michigan (280) and Mayo Clinic (276).
- OpenAI OpCo LLC appears at 304 approvals.
- Some names show up twice under slightly different spellings, for example Capgemini America Inc (1,074) and CAPGEMINI AMERICA, INC. (537).

## What Remains Unclear

The supplied source text is a ranked list only. It does not break down new hires versus continuing employment, cap-subject versus cap-exempt petitions, or compare against prior quarters. The excerpt provided is marked incomplete, so treat the figures as a snapshot rather than a full picture of any employer's H-1B activity.
