Anthropic’s IPO filings turned today into a referendum on what AI companies will look like when they grow up—and how much control they’ll keep. In its SEC S-1, the Claude maker set out a five-class structure designed to concentrate voting power: one founder LLC share class (Class F) grants 50.1% of the votes with no economic rights, and that control flips only if fewer than three co-founders remain for 90 days. The financials are similarly blunt. Anthropic reported $16.3 billion in first-half 2026 revenue but a net loss of $80.7 billion, with net losses since 2023 of about $132.5 billion. It also signaled a compute spending spree: $542 billion to $567 billion for future infrastructure, including “Anthropic Direct” data centers to reduce dependence on major cloud suppliers—while warning investors about upfront cash outflows and power-delivery risk. Even enterprise go-to-market shows up in governance terms: Claude Code’s top 5% of users spend about 20× the average, pushing Anthropic to sell agents as software embedded across first-party apps.
