Anthropic has successfully secured $30 billion in new funding that propels its valuation to $380 billion, marking one of the largest private capital raises in technology sector history. The AI company’s exceptional valuation growth from $183 billion reflects rapid technological improvements and growing enterprise recognition of AI’s transformative business potential.
The investment round was jointly led by GIC, Singapore’s sovereign wealth fund, and Coatue Management, a prominent hedge fund with extensive technology holdings. Their participation signals broad institutional confidence in Anthropic’s leadership position in enterprise AI, with products demonstrating compelling advantages in business applications.
Revenue performance at Anthropic has been remarkable, achieving an annualized $14 billion after experiencing more than tenfold expansion in each of the past three years. The widespread adoption of Claude Code, an AI-powered development tool that became widely available in May 2025, has been a major driver of this growth trajectory and market share capture.
Anthropic has outlined an aggressive path to profitability, with forecasts showing cash burn declining to roughly one-third of revenue in 2026 and approximately 9% by 2027. The company’s ambitious 2028 break-even target could establish it as potentially the first major AI startup to achieve sustainable operations, providing advantages as companies prepare for public offerings anticipated in late 2026.
The company was founded in 2021 by siblings Dario and Daniela Amodei after both left leadership roles at OpenAI to establish an AI company with enhanced safety focus. Anthropic’s recent Super Bowl advertising campaign emphasized its commitment to maintaining ad-free products, creating clear market differentiation from competitors introducing advertising, while building on major strategic partnerships with Amazon, which invested $8 billion, and Google, which contributed $2 billion.
