Anthropic to Close Over $30 Billion Round as Soon as Next Week

Anthropic plans to close a funding round of over $30 billion as soon as next week at a valuation above $900 billion, Bloomberg reported, citing people familiar with the matter, which would put it ahead of OpenAI as the world’s most valuable AI startup.

Why it matters: Bloomberg reports Anthropic may close a $30B-plus round next week at a $900B-plus post-money valuation, a frontier-lab capital-structure story. HKR-H/K/R all pass; the deal is not closed, so it stays below the 95 band.
