Anthropic has secured $30 billion in new funding that elevates its valuation to $380 billion, establishing it as one of the world’s most valuable private technology companies. The dramatic increase from the company’s $183 billion September valuation reflects rapid technological improvements and accelerating enterprise adoption of its Claude AI platform.
The investment round was spearheaded by GIC, Singapore’s sovereign wealth fund, and Coatue Management, a prominent hedge fund focused on technology investments. Their joint leadership in this massive funding validates Anthropic’s technology leadership and market strategy, with institutional investors viewing the company as best positioned to capitalize on AI transformation.
Anthropic’s revenue trajectory has been exceptional, reaching an annualized $14 billion after experiencing more than tenfold expansion in each of the past three years. The widespread adoption of Claude Code, an AI-powered software development assistant that became generally available in May 2025, has been instrumental in driving this growth and establishing Anthropic’s presence in the developer tools market.
The company has outlined an ambitious but achievable financial strategy, with cash burn projected to decline to roughly one-third of revenue next year and approximately 9% by 2027. Anthropic’s 2028 break-even target represents a faster timeline to profitability than competitors, which could provide strategic advantages as the company prepares for an anticipated public market debut in the second half of 2026.
Anthropic was founded in 2021 by Dario and Daniela Amodei, siblings who previously held executive roles at OpenAI before establishing a company with an explicit focus on AI safety. The company’s recent Super Bowl advertising emphasized its commitment to maintaining ad-free products, creating meaningful differentiation from competitors introducing advertising models, while leveraging substantial strategic partnerships with Amazon, which invested $8 billion, and Google, which contributed $2 billion.
