Anthropic has raised US$30 billion in a Series G funding round led by GIC and Coatue, valuing the company at US$380 billion post-money.
The round was co-led by D. E. Shaw Ventures, Dragoneer, Founders Fund, ICONIQ, and MGX, and included previous investors such as Microsoft and NVIDIA, alongside a number of prominent venture and institutional investors.
“Whether it is entrepreneurs, startups, or the world’s largest enterprises, the message from our customers is the same: Claude is increasingly becoming critical to how businesses work,”
said Krishna Rao, Anthropic’s Chief Financial Officer.
“This fundraising reflects the incredible demand we are seeing from these customers, and we will use this investment to continue building the enterprise-grade products and models they have come to depend on.”
Since earning its first revenue less than three years ago, Anthropic’s run-rate revenue has reached US$14 billion, growing more than tenfold annually.
The number of customers spending over US$100,000 annually on Claude has increased sevenfold in the past year, while those spending over US$1 million now exceed 500.
Eight of the Fortune 10 are Claude customers.
The Series G funds will support frontier research, product development, and infrastructure expansion, including making Claude available across Amazon Web Services, Google Cloud, and Microsoft Azure.
The company continues to diversify its AI hardware, using AWS Trainium, Google TPUs, and NVIDIA GPUs, to improve performance and resilience for enterprise clients.
