Anthropic's filings in SpaceX's IPO documents reveal compute agreements worth up to $120.5B through 2029:
- Monthly payments reaching $3.1B once full capacity is delivered ($37.2B annualized)
- Full contracted compute capacity expected by December 2026
- Agreements terminable with 90 days' notice after initial periods ending January and March 2027
The scale of SpaceX's infrastructure business is becoming enormous — and the company is simultaneously building its own frontier models while selling compute to competitors like Anthropic.
