The company\u2019s second-quarter revenue exceeded $11.5 billion, more than 14 times the same quarter a year earlier and more than double its first-quarter revenue of $4.73 billion.<\/p>\n<p>The figures place Anthropic ahead of OpenAI in current annual revenue run rate, with OpenAI at $40 billion. Anthropic is expected to pursue an initial public offering in the fall of 2026, ahead of OpenAI, if its plans remain on track. The source does not provide a valuation, share price, or investor identities.<\/p>\n<h2>How quickly did Anthropic\u2019s revenue grow?<\/h2>\n<p>Anthropic\u2019s reported annual revenue run rate increased from approximately $9 billion at the end of 2025 to $65 billion by the end of July 2026.

The second-quarter figure was more than double the first-quarter result and more than 14 times the revenue recorded in the same quarter a year earlier.<\/p>\n<h2>When is Anthropic expected to go public?<\/h2>\n<p>Anthropic\u2019s initial public offering is expected in the fall of 2026, according to the report.

The comparison is based on the figures reported in the source and does not include information about either company\u2019s valuation, profitability, or market share.<\/p>\n<h2>What do the reported figures show?<\/h2>\n<p>The figures show a sharp acceleration in Anthropic\u2019s reported revenue over a short period.
