Extended read
The race to go public among AI's biggest private players is heating up, with Anthropic confidentially filing its S-1 registration with the SEC. This move formally starts the clock on what is expected to be one of the largest IPOs in recent memory. The filing follows a period of rapid growth, with one source citing a recent valuation of $965 billion and an annual revenue run rate of $47 billion, figures that underscore the massive scale of the business. Anthropic's public debut will be a significant market event, competing for investor capital with other highly anticipated offerings, such as a potential IPO from SpaceX. For existing investors, it offers a path to liquidity. Alphabet, in particular, stands to benefit, with its 14% stake valued at a reported $135.1 billion. The IPO will serve as a crucial valuation benchmark for the entire AI sector.
