量子位 · wechat · 2026-08-18
Anthropic has revealed an annualized revenue run rate of $65 billion, significantly overtaking OpenAI's $40 billion, according to Bloomberg. The company's revenue surged 7x in just eight months, achieving positive adjusted operating profit in Q2 for the first time.
Anthropic is also leading the IPO race, having filed confidentially and aiming for an October debut with a valuation approaching a trillion dollars. In contrast, OpenAI faces slower growth and continued high cash burn, with an uncertain IPO timeline. Anthropic's growth is driven by enterprise adoption and Claude Code, focusing on stable B2B revenue streams.
