Anthropic has reportedly set a target of almost tripling its annualized revenue to $26 billion in 2026, up from its projected revenue of $9 billion in 2025.

According to a report by Reuters citing people familiar with the matter, Anthropic is currently on track to meet its current goal of $9 billion in annualized revenue by the end of 2025. The AI startup stated that its annual revenue run rate is on track to reach $7 billion this month.

The report added that Anthropic's base case scenario for 2026's annualized revenue is $20 billion, which would be more than twice its projected revenue for 2025.

The AI startup counts Amazon Inc. (AMZN) and Alphabet Inc.'s (GOOG) (GOOGL) Google among its investors.

Anthropic is not listed publicly at the moment. Retail sentiment on Stocktwits around the AI startup was in the 'bearish' territory at the time of writing.
