Rohan Paul highlights a Bloomberg chart showing Anthropic's revenue growth at a scale rarely seen in tech history: H1 2026 revenue is nearly 400x its full-year 2023 revenue, a multiple no other company on the chart comes close to.
- Nvidia, the next steepest curve, stayed under 50x across its three pre-IPO years, while Alphabet, Meta, Microsoft, and SpaceX barely leave the 1x baseline
- Anthropic's full-year 2025 revenue was roughly 100x 2023, meaning just six months of 2026 brought in about 4x all of 2025
- The chart indexes revenue to each company's three years pre-IPO, based on SEC filings
