Anthropic hits a $380B valuation as it heightens competition with OpenAI

Anthropic's $30 billion funding round more than doubles its valuation to $380 billion as enterprise customers increase sevenfold, highlighting rapid growth in AI infrastructure and products.

  • On Thursday, Anthropic closed a $30 billion funding round at a $380 billion post-money valuation, more than double its September value.
  • Led by Coatue and GIC, the round included D. E. Shaw Ventures, Dragoneer, Founders Fund, ICONIQ, MGX, and a portion of Microsoft and Nvidia commitments up to $5 billion and $10 billion.
  • Company financials show rising enterprise demand, with Anthropic's annualized revenue climbing to $14 billion and Claude Code's revenue reaching $2.5 billion as subscriptions quadrupled; CFO Krishna Rao said, `Claude is increasingly becoming more critical to how businesses work.`
  • Anthropic said the fresh capital will fund infrastructure expansion, research, and enterprise-grade products while padding cash after $1.4 trillion infrastructure deals last year.
  • Amid heavy spending by rivals, the funding places Anthropic in fierce competition as OpenAI seeks $100 billion and Google plans up to $185 billion in capex this year.
