The deal makes Anthropic the world’s most valuable AI startup, surpassing rival OpenAI’s $852 billion mark. Chief Financial Officer Krishna Rao stated that the new funding will go toward safety research, computing capacity, and developing Claude Code. The firm’s annualized revenue crossed the $47 billion mark in May 2026. The round includes $15 billion from cloud providers like Amazon, which contributed $5 billion. Anthropic also secured over 10 gigawatts of computing capacity through agreements with Google, Broadcom, and SpaceX. Despite its financial success, the firm is locked in a legal battle with the Pentagon after refusing to remove safeguards that would allow Claude to be used for mass surveillance or lethal autonomous weapons systems.
