Anthropic has reportedly submitted a confidential draft S-1 as it races OpenAI
to list, targeting a Wall Street IPO as early as this autumn. Share count and
pricing have not been set. Anthropic, OpenAI and SpaceX are advancing listing
plans to open a major financing channel. In its most recent financing Anthropic
raised $65.0 bln and was valued at $965.0 bln, surpassing OpenAI. Demand for its
tools has surged as clients adopt them for coding and other tasks. Goldman
Sachs, JP Morgan and Morgan Stanley are expected to be considered for
lead-manager roles on the Anthropic and OpenAI listings, sources said.
