● Anthropic just dropped some eye-popping numbers. According to a tweet from SriMuppidi, the AI company is forecasting $70 billion in annual revenue by 2028 — a massive jump from about $5 billion this year — along with $17 billion in profit. They're expecting to turn cash flow positive by 2027, beating OpenAI to profitability by roughly three years.
● Sources close to the company say this explosive growth is being fueled by strong enterprise demand for their AI tools, particularly Claude 4.5 and Claude Code. The developer tool alone is reportedly closing in on $1 billion in annual recurring revenue, showing just how much traction Anthropic is getting in the business software space.
● These projections come on the heels of a massive $13 billion funding round back in September — way above their original $3.5 billion goal. Now word is they're gearing up for another round that could value the company somewhere between $300 billion and $400 billion, which would put them among the most valuable private tech companies on the planet. That kind of valuation shows investors are betting big on Anthropic's ability to scale AI products commercially.
● The company also expects its 2025 API revenue to be about double what OpenAI brings in, pointing to a real shift toward steady, recurring income from developers and enterprises. Industry watchers say this signals a new era in AI — one that's less about research experiments and more about reliable products, actual monetization, and large-scale business integration.
