In one of the technology sector’s largest private funding transactions, Anthropic has raised $30 billion at a valuation of $380 billion. The AI company’s dramatic valuation increase reflects both rapid technological progress and growing recognition of AI’s transformative potential across enterprise sectors.
GIC, Singapore’s sovereign wealth fund, partnered with Coatue Management to lead the exceptional investment round, with institutional investors demonstrating strong conviction in Anthropic’s enterprise AI leadership. The funding provides substantial resources for scaling operations, expanding research capabilities, and building global market presence.
Anthropic’s revenue metrics are compelling, with annualized sales reaching $14 billion after experiencing more than tenfold growth in each of the past three years. Claude Code, the company’s AI-powered software development assistant that became widely available in May 2025, has been instrumental in this expansion, capturing significant developer mindshare and market position in the competitive AI tools landscape.
The company’s financial planning demonstrates a clear trajectory toward sustainability, with cash burn projected to decrease to approximately one-third of revenue in 2026 and less than 10% by 2027. Anthropic’s 2028 break-even target represents a faster path to profitability than competitors, which could provide strategic advantages as both Anthropic and rivals prepare for anticipated public offerings in the second half of 2026.
Founded by former OpenAI executives Dario and Daniela Amodei in 2021, Anthropic has positioned itself as a safety-focused alternative in the AI race. The company’s recent Super Bowl marketing emphasized its commitment to ad-free products, distinguishing it in a market where competitors have begun introducing advertising models, while building on substantial previous investments from Amazon and Google totaling over $10 billion in combined commitments.
