Anthropic Files for Record IPO That Could Raise $64.35B

Anthropic is lining up the largest initial public offering ever, according to Crypto Briefing. The AI company behind Claude and Claude Code has filed updated terms for a deal that could raise $64.35 billion, with a further $26 billion expected to come in through private placements.

That would put the offering past SpaceX's previous record of $86.2 billion, making it a landmark moment for equity markets. The filing lands as 2026 shapes up to be a record-breaking year for big-ticket listings.

The numbers behind the pitch are a mix of scale and strain. Anthropic grew revenue to $33.2 billion in the first nine months of 2026, yet the company remains loss-making heading into the deal.

Market watchers have their eyes on the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission for a declaration of effectiveness on Anthropic's registration statement. Confirmation of an IPO date would be the key signal for sentiment, and the deal is currently framed around a possible November 19 debut.

Two other moving parts could shift how likely that date looks: any change in strategic investor commitments, and any adjustment to share pricing. An update from Anthropic and its underwriters on order books and final pricing is the next thing to watch.
