Anthropic стремится к рекордным $350 млрд оценки, привлекая $10 млрд финансирования Translation: Anthropic Aims for a Record $350 Billion Valuation by Securing $10 Billion in Funding

Anthropic is gearing up to secure $10 billion in new funding. The developer of the chatbot Claude is aiming for a valuation of $350 billion, according to sources cited by the WSJ.

The funding round will be led by Singapore’s sovereign wealth fund GIC and investment firm Coatue Management.

This new valuation is nearly double that of September last year, when the startup was valued at $183 billion following a $13 billion Series F funding round.

In addition to the main round, Nvidia and Microsoft are expected to invest up to $15 billion more into Anthropic, according to sources. The parties aim to finalize the deal in the coming weeks, although the total investment amount may be adjusted.

The company’s management anticipates reaching break-even by 2028, outpacing the timeline of their main competitor, OpenAI. Anthropic also plans to go public as early as 2026.

The excitement surrounding AI startups continues following a record-breaking year in 2025. According to Crunchbase, the artificial intelligence sector attracted about 50% of total global venture capital in the past 12 months.

Total investments have surpassed $200 billion, with the largest deal during that period being OpenAI’s $41 billion funding backed by SoftBank.

Furthermore, it is worth mentioning that in December, U.S. tech giants formed the Agentic AI Foundation alliance to standardize AI agents.
