Anthropic Raises $65 Billion in Series H Funding at $965 Billion Post-Money Valuation Anthropic, the artificial intelligence company known for its large language model Claude, has secured $65 billion in Series H funding, bringing its post-money valuation to an astonishing $965 billion. The funding round was led by major venture capital firms including Altimeter Capital, Dragoneer, Greenoaks, and Sequoia Capital, with additional participation from a broad array of institutional investors and hyperscalers. The round marks a significant milestone in the company’s rapid growth and its efforts to scale its AI capabilities globally. The funding will be directed toward advancing safety and interpretability research, expanding computational infrastructure to meet rising demand for Claude, and scaling products and partnerships that underpin its enterprise operations. Global enterprises across diverse industries have increasingly integrated Claude into their core workflows, with adoption continuing to grow since the company’s Series G funding round in February. The company reported that its run-rate revenue surpassed $47 billion earlier this month, underscoring the robust demand for its AI tools. Krishna Rao, Anthropic’s Chief Financial Officer, emphasized the critical role of Claude in supporting its expanding customer base. “Claude is increasingly indispensable to our growing global community of customers,” Rao stated. “This funding will help us serve the historic demand we are experiencing, stay at the research frontier, and bring Claude to more of the places where work happens.” The investment also aims to enhance tools like Claude Code and Cowork, making them more adaptable to user needs and more powerful for professional applications.#anthropic #claire #krishna_rao #brad_gerstner #marc_stad
