Anthropic, the developer behind the Claude AI chatbot, has launched its investor roadshow targeting a historic stock market debut next week that could value the company at up to $1.4 trillion. The company plans to raise as much as $64.4 billion by offering 825 million shares priced between $70 and $78, alongside securing $26 billion in a private placement from tech giants like Google, Nvidia, Microsoft, and AMD. Despite investor anxiety over Anthropic's nearly $900 billion in computing cost commitments and potential regulatory headwinds from a newly Democratic-led US Congress, the firm's growth remains explosive—projecting $81 billion in annual revenue driven by soaring enterprise demand for Claude.
