TL;DR

Key Points
ARR jumped from $9B (Dec 2025) to $47B today, fueled by Claude enterprise usage
$965B post-money valuation leapfrogs OpenAI's $852B March 2026 mark
Series H closed last week at $65B; lead investors not yet public
Confidential filing allows SEC feedback before the public S-1; IPO typically follows by ~1 month
OpenAI expected to file in coming days or weeks; both targeting Q4 2026
Why It Matters
If Anthropic prints a $1T market cap on day one, the AI duopoly thesis becomes a public-equities story, and every model lab without an IPO path becomes an acquisition target.
