Summary
Anthropic has announced a landmark $65 billion Series H funding round, achieving a post-money valuation of $965 billion. The round was led by Altimeter Capital, Dragoneer, Greenoaks, and Sequoia Capital, with co-leadership from Capital Group, Coatue, D1 Capital Partners, and others. The company disclosed that its Claude AI assistant has achieved a run-rate revenue of $47 billion, reflecting explosive adoption across global enterprises deploying Claude in core business operations.
The capital will be deployed toward three strategic priorities: advancing safety and interpretability research, expanding compute infrastructure to meet surging demand, and scaling the products and partnerships customers depend on. Anthropic has committed to massive compute expansion, signing agreements with Amazon for up to five gigawatts of new capacity, partnering with Google and Broadcom for next-generation TPU capacity, and securing GPU access through SpaceX's infrastructure. The company also announced strategic relationships with semiconductor providers Micron, Samsung, and SK hynix to secure critical memory, storage, and logic chip supplies.
Claude is now available on all three major cloud platforms—Amazon Web Services, Google Cloud, and Microsoft Azure—with AWS remaining Anthropic's primary cloud and training partner. The funding round included $15 billion in previously committed hyperscaler investments, including $5 billion from Amazon, signaling strong market validation of Anthropic's technological progress and position as a leading frontier AI company.
