Artificial intelligence firm Anthropic has raised $30 billion in a fresh funding round, nearly doubling its valuation to about $380 billion. The deal underlines the intense global investor appetite for AI platforms as enterprise adoption accelerates and spending on advanced computing infrastructure surges.
Anthropic is the maker of Claude, a fast-growing AI chatbot positioned strongly among developers, particularly for coding-related use cases.
• Anthropic raised $30 billion in its latest funding round.
• The deal values the company at roughly $380 billion to $400 billion.
• It comes just five months after its previous round.
• The round ranks among the largest private capital raises in the AI sector.
The scale of funding reflects the rising costs of building and training advanced AI models, including heavy spending on high-performance GPUs.
The Series G round was led by Singapore’s sovereign wealth fund GIC and hedge fund Coatue Management. Other key investors include:
• Sequoia Capital
• Menlo Ventures
• Lightspeed Venture Partners
• Blackstone
• Funds affiliated with BlackRock
Earlier backers include Amazon, which has invested $8 billion and serves as Anthropic’s cloud partner, and Google, which invested $2 billion in 2023.
The $30 billion raise is among the biggest in AI. However, it is not the largest in tech history. In 2025, OpenAI — led by Sam Altman — raised $40 billion in a round led by SoftBank, which remains the largest private tech financing deal. Ant Group had earlier raised $14 billion in 2018.
The company said it will:
• Deepen AI research
• Expand computing infrastructure
• Scale Claude globally
• Build enterprise-grade AI products
The funding will help expand capacity as customer demand rises across sectors. The near doubling in valuation highlights the rapid escalation in AI company valuations as competition with rivals like OpenAI intensifies.
