  "account": "Anthropic's CEO, Dario Amodei, took home $18 million in total compensation for 2025, according to the company's confidential IPO prospectus obtained by Reuters. The bulk of his earnings came from stock and options, rather than a base salary. In July, both Amodei and his sister, Anthropic President Daniela Amodei, saw their annual salaries doubled to $1.4 million each. Daniela's total compensation for the year amounted to $16.4 million. Further restricted stock units were promised to both executives by Anthropic's board. Some of these shares are contingent upon their continued employment with the company, while others are linked to the planned stock market listing. Salaries for other Anthropic executives were also disclosed, with Krishna Rao, who joined the company in 2024, receiving a salary of $720,250 for 2025. Rao had previously received options for 1.4 million shares and exercised those options for a value of $385,285 in the prior year. Anthropic's IPO could potentially be listed as early as this autumn, with a projected valuation of over $2 trillion, as stated in the prospectus. The company submitted its application for the listing in June. While Amodei's compensation falls within the range typically seen among major technology executives, it still represents a significant portion of wealth held by founders and executives through company shares. The SEC's \"compensation actually paid\" measure, which accounts for changes in the value of unvested stock, indicates that Alphabet CEO Sundar Pichai received $213.9 million and Amazon CEO Andy Jassy received $13.2 million in 2025. Anthropic's founders have pledged to donate 80% of their personal Anthropic shares to charity, though the specific ownership percentages have not been disclosed.",
