On Monday, Anthropic filed its S-1 registration statement, though the filing was initially confidential. The nearly trillion-dollar startup has grown significantly since being founded in 2021 by siblings Dario and Daniela Amodei. As of May, Anthropic’s annualized revenue run rate hit $47 billion, a figure that, while not guaranteeing success, signals substantial growth.
There is speculation that if Anthropic goes public before OpenAI, it could dampen demand for its less profitable competitor. However, a confidential S-1 filing does not guarantee an IPO; timing remains uncertain. If Anthropic does go public this summer or fall, it will send a clear signal of its intention to beat OpenAI to the public markets.
