Anthropic confidentially files for IPO with SEC

Anthropic IPO filing signals a near-term path to public markets and growth Track Claude maker's listing plans as it eyes a potential debut

Anthropic has confidentially submitted its IPO prospectus to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, moving closer to a potential public listing. The company said the timing of any offering will depend on market conditions and the SEC review process. The filing puts Anthropic ahead of rival OpenAI, which is also preparing a confidential submission. A confidential filing does not set a fixed timeline, but the company must share its prospectus with investors before starting a roadshow. Founded in 2021 by former OpenAI executives and researchers, Anthropic is known for its Claude AI models and related coding tools. The company has reported rapid growth this year, including a revenue run rate of $47 billion and a recent funding round that valued it at $965 billion.
