Company Profile. Founded in 2021, Anthropic PBC develops Claude, a family of advanced AI models focused on enterprise adoption, model safety and reliability. Its products are distributed through a developer platform and applications including Claude Code, Claude Cowork and Claude.ai. Revenue is primarily consumption-based, with the remainder generated through subscriptions. Anthropic claims Claude has achieved the fastest enterprise adoption of any technology in history. Businesses across multiple industries use the platform to boost productivity, automate complex workflows and embed AI capabilities into their own products. Its four model families, Mythos (including Fable), Opus, Sonnet and Haiku, offer different trade-offs between performance, speed and cost. The platform also provides tools to build, connect, manage and deploy AI agents across customer workflows. As of September 30, 2026, Anthropic had more than 11,900 customers with over $100k in trailing 12-month contract value, including every Fortune 10 company and more than half of the Fortune 500. Claude is available directly and through major cloud infrastructure providers, including Amazon Web Services, Google Cloud and Microsoft Azure. Looking ahead, Anthropic plans to further enhance Claude's capabilities and safety, expand computing infrastructure and international capacity, and extend its technology into scientific research, drug discovery and robotics.
