AI giant Anthropic announces plans to list on US stock market

Kali HaysTechnology reporter, San Francisco

AI giant Anthropic has announced it plans to become a public company in the US.

The company, which is behind the popular chatbot Claude, said on Monday it had filed confidential paperwork with the US Securities and Exchange Commission in order to make an initial public offering (IPO) this year.

The move means people will be able to trade shares in the firm on the stock market, though the company said the number of shares to be offered and the price "have not yet been set".

Anthropic's announcement comes after Elon Musk's SpaceX revealed its own plans to go public, teeing up a test of whether appetite among investors matches the soaring valuations of AI firms.

While Anthropic, founded just five years ago, recently raised money from private investors that valued the company at more than $965bn (£717bn ), it did not reveal a target price for its planned public listing.

Anthropic's decision to go public marks a bold step forward for the AI industry.

With a valuation exceeding $965 billion, Anthropic is set to offer investors a rare opportunity to own a piece of the next-generation AI revolution. The IPO will allow the public to share in the company's success and fund further innovation. As one of the most anticipated tech listings, it underscores the vibrancy of the AI sector and the market's appetite for pioneering technology.

− NEGATIVE30%

Anthropic's IPO filing raises questions about market timing and valuation. Despite a $965 billion private valuation, the company has yet to prove it can sustain profitability in a competitive AI landscape. The confidential filing obscures key details, leaving investors in the dark about the true state of the business. Moreover, the rush to go public may be driven by a need to cash out early investors rather than a sound growth strategy. With other AI firms like OpenAI also eyeing the public markets, a glut of tech IPOs could dampen demand. Skeptics warn that high valuations may not be justified by fundamentals, posing risks for retail investors.
