Anthropic Secures $30 Billion, Valuation Soars to $380 Billion

Executive Signal Summary

Anthropic announced the close of a $30 billion funding round at a $380 billion post-money valuation. The round was led by Coatue and Singapore sovereign wealth fund GIC, with participation from D. E. Shaw Ventures, Dragoneer, Founders Fund, ICONIQ and MGX. Anthropic said the raise includes a portion of previously announced commitments from Microsoft (up to $5 billion) and Nvidia (up to $10 billion). The company reported annualized revenue of $14 billion (up from roughly $10 billion last year) and said Claude Code’s annualized revenue reached $2.5 billion. Anthropic plans to use the capital to expand infrastructure, research and enterprise-grade products; it also recently unveiled a new model, Claude Opus 4.6. The move follows similarly large rounds for OpenAI and reflects heavy capital flows into foundation-model AI development.

Anthropic in talks to raise funds at $900B valuation

Anthropic is reportedly in private talks with investors to raise new capital at a valuation of $900 billion, which would exceed OpenAI’s recent valuation of about $852 billion. CNBC says no term sheet has been signed and discussions are ongoing. Anthropic has recently released Claude Opus 4.7 and the selective-access Claude Mythos Preview, and has said its business has reached $30 billion in annualized revenue (roughly $10 billion in revenue last year). The company has secured major compute and investment arrangements with hyperscalers: Amazon agreed to invest up to $25 billion and provide up to 5 gigawatts of compute capacity, and Anthropic announced a Google–Broadcom compute arrangement (5 GW) while Google indicated plans to invest up to $40 billion. Sources say Anthropic seeks fresh capital largely to buy the compute needed to run advanced models like Mythos.
