People have hard questions about AI and work: which jobs will change, which tasks are being automated, and what it means for their own field. The Anthropic Economic Index exists to help answer them with real data. Today we're launching the Anthropic Economic Index connector for Claude, which lets anyone explore that data directly.
We’re sharing the research agenda for the Anthropic Economic Futures Research Fund. We’re committing $200 million to the fund to support ambitious external research on interventions to prepare society for the economic impacts of AI.
We're contributing an additional $20 million to Public First Action, bringing our total support to $40 million. Public First Action is a non-partisan organization that educates the public about AI and works with Republicans, Democrats, and Independents who are serious about putting sensible AI safeguards in place. Both of our donations were made exclusively to support Public First Action’s public education and policy mission, and cannot be used to influence the election of any candidate for federal, state, or local office.
Last spring, we announced Anthropic’s AI for Science program, an initiative designed to accelerate scientific research and discovery through access to our API. Since launching, we have supported researchers working on a variety of high-impact projects, ranging from drug repurposing to quantum simulation. Throughout this initiative, we have found that projects are more generative when multiple AI for Science grantees are working on related questions and exchanging tips. So we now plan to launch thematic calls for projects within the broader AI for Science program.
As AI transforms the nature of and methods behind cyberattacks, how well do the techniques and frameworks used by the security community hold up?
Almost every large enterprise is moving AI into production, and many have discovered something important: a successful pilot is not the same as a system a business can run on. The real work—and the real opportunity—is in the integration, the evaluation, and the way people's work evolves. That's why the companies getting AI integration right are doing it with partners who have done it before.
Project Glasswing is our collaborative effort to secure the world’s most important software. In early April, we announced that roughly 50 initial partners had access to Claude Mythos Preview, and since then, they’ve been deploying the model to scan their codebases for vulnerabilities. We recently described how these partners have so far found more than 10,000 high- or critical-severity security flaws.
Today, Anthropic, PBC confidentially submitted a draft registration statement on Form S-1 to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission for a proposed initial public offering of our common stock. This gives us the option to go public after the SEC completes its review. The proposed initial public offering will depend on market conditions and other factors.
Anthropic has raised $65 billion in Series H funding led by Altimeter Capital, Dragoneer, Greenoaks, and Sequoia Capital, valuing the company at $965 billion post-money.
We’re upgrading Claude Opus to a new version: Claude Opus 4.8. It builds on Opus 4.7 with improvements across benchmarks, and is a more effective collaborator. It’s available today for the same price.
