Anthropic Revenue Surges 45% to $16.8B Ahead of IPO
Anthropic's third-quarter revenue reached $16.8 billion, up 45% from the second quarter. An investor at a pre-IPO meeting in San Francisco provided the figure.
- $4.7 billion in first-quarter revenue, the investor said.
- $11.6 billion in second-quarter revenue.
- $2 trillion-plus valuation is Anthropic's reported target.
- Google and Amazon are investors, suppliers, partners and competitors at once.
Why it matters: Anthropic must persuade investors that revenue growth can eventually outpace the cost of building AI. The company remains heavily unprofitable.
- Company committed hundreds of billions to long-term cloud and computing deals.
- Its IPO is expected to come before OpenAI's public listing.
