Anthropic Q3 revenue surges 45% to $16.8 billion as AI startup gears up for $2 trillion IPO

Anthropic's third-quarter revenue surged 45% to $16.8 billion in the latest period, according to an investor who attended a pre-IPO meeting in San Francisco. The company's revenue grew from $4.7 billion in the first quarter to $11.6 billion in the second quarter, as reported by the source. Anthropic revealed that it was profitable on an adjusted basis during the third quarter, as mentioned in the source.

The company did not provide immediate comment on the matter. The anticipated IPO, aiming for a valuation of over $2 trillion, is expected to occur before the November US midterm elections, per Reuters. AI companies are under heightened scrutiny due to their investments in chips, data centers, and computing power required for developing and operating advanced models.

Anthropic, founded by former OpenAI executives, aims to demonstrate to investors that its revenue growth can surpass the substantial costs associated with AI system development and operation. The company has allocated at least $518 billion over a decade for cloud services, computing, and infrastructure.
