Anthropic (ANTHRO) confirmed on Thursday that it has closed its oft-speculated latest funding round, raising more money than expected.
The maker of the Claude family of artificial intelligence models raised $30B in a Series G funding round at a $380B valuation.
The round was co-led by D. E. Shaw Ventures, Dragoneer, Founders Fund, ICONIQ, and MGX, Anthropic said in a statement. It also includes several asset managers, hedge funds, and venture capital firms, as well as some of the previous money that came from Microsoft (MSFT) and Nvidia (NVDA).
Anthropic said the money will be used for “the frontier research, product development, and infrastructure expansions that have made Anthropic the market leader in enterprise AI and coding.”
“Whether it is entrepreneurs, startups, or the world’s largest enterprises, the message from our customers is the same: Claude is increasingly becoming more critical to how businesses work,” said Krishna Rao, Anthropic’s Chief Financial Officer. “This fundraising reflects the incredible demand we are seeing from these customers, and we will use this investment to continue building the enterprise-grade products and models they have come to depend on.”
In addition, Anthropic said that the company’s revenue run rate is now $14B, and this figure has grown more than 10 times annually over the past three years. Anthropic’s revenue run rate surpassed $9B at the end of 2025, according to previous reporting.
Included in that is a surge in Claude Code, the company’s agentic AI coding tool. Claude Code’s revenue run rate is now more than $2.5B and has more than doubled since the start of the year, Anthropic added. Weekly active users for Claude Code have also doubled since Jan. 1, Anthropic explained.
“Business subscriptions to Claude Code have quadrupled since the start of 2026, and enterprise use has grown to represent over half of all Claude Code revenue,” Anthropic said.
Anthropic, which competes with OpenAI (OPENAI) and xAI (X.AI), has also reportedly been working with advisors in advance of a potential initial public offering later this year.
