Anthropic eyes historic $2 trillion IPO amid rapid revenue growth

Anthropic is preparing for a potential initial public offering (IPO) that could become one of the largest in history. Following a confidential filing with the SEC in June, investors are speculating on an October debut with valuations potentially reaching between $2 trillion and $3 trillion, which would surpass the valuation of SpaceX.

To justify this massive valuation, bankers and investors are looking toward long-term growth projections, specifically an estimated revenue of $190 billion to $200 billion by 2028. This is a significant leap from the company's reported annualized revenue run rate of approximately $47 billion as of May 2026. Anthropic has seen rapid growth in its enterprise market, capturing a 32% share of the enterprise large language model API market.

Amidst the financial momentum, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei has acknowledged that the AI industry has yet to deliver on its most significant promises to benefit the world. He noted that while the technology is advancing, public trust remains tied to tangible breakthroughs rather than mere potential. The company continues to invest heavily in computing infrastructure and model development to maintain its competitive position.
