FinanceNPRAI giant Anthropic files for an IPO that could break records
AI company Anthropic, maker of the Claude chatbot, has filed for an IPO that could value it at up to two trillion dollars.
The AI company, which makes the popular Claude chatbot, has filed for an initial public offering that could be one of the biggest ever.
Anthropic filed formal IPO paperwork with US regulators under the ticker ANT, in a listing analysts expect could value the company at between 1.5 and 2 trillion dollars.
The company reported revenue of 16.3 billion dollars in the first half of this year, a 1,300 per cent rise, but still booked a loss of nearly 81 billion dollars in the same period.
Founded just five years ago by former OpenAI researchers, Anthropic has grown into OpenAI's biggest rival and is now pushing toward one of the largest tech listings in history.
