Anthropic hits $30B revenue run rate, partners with SpaceX

AI company Anthropic announced an impressive $30 billion annualized revenue run rate, driven largely by its Claude Code product, which experienced an 80x growth surge. This hypergrowth has strained Anthropic's infrastructure, leading to a significant compute capacity deal with Elon Musk's SpaceX. The partnership grants Anthropic access to substantial computing power, addressing immediate needs while the company navigates its rapid expansion and prepares for a potential IPO valued at nearly $1 trillion. This rapid ascent positions Anthropic as a major player, challenging established giants and transforming the enterprise software landscape.
