Multiple investors of Anthropic have disclosed that the company is poised to go public in October, boasting a valuation of $2 trillion or even higher. Should it succeed, Anthropic's initial public offering (IPO) would eclipse SpaceX's, marking the largest IPO in history. The soaring market demand for AI models and tools underpins this lofty valuation. Projections indicate that by the end of 2026, its annualized revenue will soar to between $100 billion and $120 billion, with full-year revenue for this year expected to surge more than tenfold. In June, Anthropic confidentially submitted its IPO documents to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and has since entered a quiet period. Since the start of this year, the company has amassed nearly $100 billion in investments, with its valuation reaching $965 billion in May, surpassing that of OpenAI.
