Anthropic confidentially files for a U.S. IPO after a $65 billion raise at $965 billion valuation. The round makes Anthropic the most valuable AI company, exceeding OpenAI. Revenue run rate reaches $47 billion. It launches Claude Opus 4.8 on the same day. Funds target safety research, compute expansion, and product growth ahead of a potential public listing.

Anthropic has confidentially filed to launch an IPO in the U.S. after closing a $65 billion Series H funding round at a $965 billion post-money valuation.

Anthropic becomes the most valuable AI company in Silicon Valley. The financing puts its valuation above rival OpenAI, which stood at $852 billion in late March. The round almost triples Anthropic's own valuation from February, when it was worth $380 billion.

Investors back the record round. It was co-led by Altimeter Capital, Dragoneer, Greenoaks and Sequoia Capital. Institutional participants included Baillie Gifford, Blackstone, Brookfield, D.E. Shaw Ventures, DST Global and Fidelity Management & Research, while strategic infrastructure partners Samsung, SK Hynix and Micron also joined.

Revenue run rate reaches $47 billion. The figure crossed that level earlier this month. It is up from a $30 billion run rate earlier this year and $10 billion in annual revenue last year, driven by enterprise adoption of Claude Code.
