Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) backed Anthropic is preparing one of Wall Street's biggest initial public offerings, targeting as much as $64.4 billion from a share sale that could value the artificial intelligence developer at approximately $1.02 trillion. The proposed listing represents a major test of investor enthusiasm for AI as concerns mount over soaring infrastructure costs and stretched technology valuations.

Founded by former OpenAI executives, Anthropic develops the Claude family of AI models and assistants. It generates revenue through enterprise subscriptions, consumer plans and usage-based access to its models.
According to its November 10 regulatory filing, Anthropic plans to sell 825 million shares at $70 to $78 apiece, including approximately 801.4 million newly issued shares and 23.6 million shares from existing investors.
The company has applied to list on Nasdaq under the ticker ANT.
An additional $26 billion private placement involving major technology companies, including Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA), Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT), Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOGL) and Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ:AMD), could push total fundraising beyond $90 billion.
The financial numbers illustrate why investors are paying attention.
Anthropic generated $33.2 billion in revenue during the first nine months of 2026, compared with $2.5 billion a year earlier.
Its annualized revenue run rate reached approximately $81 billion by October's end.
However, the growth comes with enormous financial obligations. Anthropic disclosed approximately $900.9 billion in committed spending, primarily related to computing infrastructure and associated agreements.
That raises questions about whether its extraordinary revenue expansion can eventually produce sustainable profits.
The final IPO pricing and opening trading performance will provide an important indication of institutional demand for AI investments.
At the proposed valuation, Anthropic would command roughly 12.6 times its October annualized revenue run rate, an ambitious multiple for a capital-intensive business.
Investors should monitor revenue growth, compute expenses, operating margins and cash consumption.
The company's $900.9 billion infrastructure commitments deserve particular attention, with approximately $70.7 billion due over the following 12 months.
Strong demand and improving operating efficiency could support its valuation.
However, disappointing subscription growth, rising infrastructure costs or weaker IPO demand could undermine confidence in the broader AI trade.
