Summary
Anthropic’s bankers are lining up investor meetings in the coming weeks, advancing plans for a potential IPO that could come as soon as October.
Strong revenue growth from Claude and coding-focused AI tools is driving the push, though the timing can still change as deliberations continue.
Morgan Stanley, Goldman Sachs and JPMorgan are working on the deal, and Anthropic confidentially filed for the listing last month.
A fall debut would put Anthropic ahead of OpenAI’s now-2027 IPO target and potentially before China’s DeepSeek, which could file this year.
The offering would test whether investors will back one of the world’s largest private companies after May’s funding round valued Anthropic at $965 billion.
Anthropic is set for a major IPO after a confidential S-1 filing, following a huge $65 billion Series H funding round in May 2026 that pushed its valuation to $965 billion. This near-trillion-dollar value is driven by explosive financial growth, with annualized revenue jumping from $9 billion at the end of 2025 to $30 billion by March 2026. Confidence in Anthropic’s future is strengthened by major investors like Amazon and Google, who have committed billions and integrated Anthropic’s AI into their platforms. These factors together highlight Anthropic’s rapid rise and strong position ahead of its public debut.
