Venture capitalists have been offering Anthropic a preemptive funding round that would value the Claude maker at $800 billion or more, potentially surpassing OpenAI's $852 billion post-money valuation, but Anthropic has so far declined, according to Bloomberg. The company's annualised revenue reportedly hit $30 billion by the end of March, up from $9 billion at the end of 2025. Anthropic has also committed $50 billion to build its own data centres and $30 billion to spend on Microsoft's cloud, alongside billions annually on Amazon Web Services (AWS). OpenAI closed a record-breaking $110 billion round in February at an $852 billion valuation. #Anthropic #AIFunding #DarioAmodei #OpenAI #VentureCapital Source: TechCrunch
