In a funding round that underscores the explosive growth of the AI sector, Anthropic has raised $30 billion at a valuation of $380 billion. The company’s exceptional valuation growth from $183 billion just months prior reflects rapid technological improvements and expanding recognition of AI’s transformative business potential.
Leading the investment were two institutional powerhouses: GIC, Singapore’s sovereign wealth fund, and Coatue Management, a hedge fund with significant technology investment expertise. Their participation validates Anthropic’s leadership in enterprise AI applications, with products demonstrating compelling advantages that justify extraordinary investor confidence.
The company’s financial metrics are outstanding, with annualized revenue reaching $14 billion following three consecutive years of more than tenfold growth. Claude Code, Anthropic’s AI-powered development tool that achieved general availability in May 2025, has been a significant contributor to this revenue trajectory, capturing substantial market share in the competitive AI tools sector.
Anthropic has laid out an ambitious financial strategy with cash consumption projected to fall to approximately one-third of revenue next year and single-digit percentages by 2027. The company’s 2028 break-even goal could position it two years ahead of primary competitors in achieving profitability, providing strategic advantages as companies prepare for public offerings expected in late 2026.
Founded by siblings Dario and Daniela Amodei in 2021 after both departed from OpenAI leadership roles, Anthropic has positioned itself as a safety-focused alternative in the AI market. The company’s recent Super Bowl marketing highlighted its ad-free product approach, creating clear differentiation from competitors introducing advertising models, while leveraging major backing from Amazon’s $8 billion investment and Google’s $2 billion commitment.
