## Key points

- Anthropic has filed for a US stock market listing.
- First-half 2026 revenue reached $16.286bn.
- Its rapid rise could reshape tech investment and heighten economic uncertainty.

## Summary

Anthropic has filed to list its shares on the US stock market, following exceptionally rapid growth that could make it one of the largest public offerings in history. The scale of its expected valuation may influence investment in technology companies more broadly, while raising questions about the economic effects of AI’s breakneck expansion.

Founded in 2021, Anthropic reported revenue of $41m in 2023, $386m in 2024 and $4.585bn in 2025, followed by $16.286bn in the first half of 2026. It reported an $80bn net loss for that half, largely due to a one-off $72.4bn charge, and said it had raised $141.1bn by June. Investors and analysts value the company at more than $1.5tn, though Anthropic did not state a valuation in its filing.
