Anthropic raised $30 billion in a Series G funding round that valued the company at $380 billion.
The round included some investments from Microsoft and Nvidia announced in November, the artificial intelligence startup said in a press release on Thursday (February 12).
Anthropic was valued at $183 billion five months ago when it raised $13 billion in a Series F funding round.
Anthropic said in a press release Thursday that some of the investor interest is due to the company’s strengths in enterprise AI and coding, and that it will use the new funding to support those strengths with continued frontier research, product development and infrastructure expansion.
“Whether they’re an entrepreneur, a start-up, or the world’s largest corporation, the message from our customers is the same: Claude is becoming increasingly important to the fabric of their companies,” Anthropic Chief Financial Officer Krishna Rao said in a release. “This funding reflects the incredible demand from these customers, and we will use this investment to continue building the enterprise-grade products and models our customers have come to rely on.”

The number of customers spending more than $100,000 a year with Claude has increased sevenfold in the past year, and the number of customers spending more than $1 million a year with Claude has increased from a dozen to 500 in the past two years, according to the release.
Anthropic’s agent coding tool, Claude Code, was generally available in May and currently has run-rate revenue of $2.5 billion per release.
Claude also has placements in financial analysis, data analysis, sales, cybersecurity and scientific discovery, according to the release.
Anthropic’s latest funding round was led by GIC and Coatue.
“The team’s ability to rapidly scale the product further positions Anthropic as a leader in the highly competitive AI market,” Coatue founder and portfolio manager Philippe Laffont said in the release.
Choo Yong Cheen, chief investment officer for private equity at GIC, said in a release: “Anthropic is the clear category leader in enterprise AI, demonstrating breakthrough capabilities and setting new standards for safety, performance and scale that will drive long-term success.”
Anthropic released a new version of its flagship AI model on February 5, saying Claude Opus 4.6 is designed for enterprise and knowledge work.
