D. E. Shaw Ventures, Dragoneer, Founders Fund, ICONIQ, and MGX co-led this funding round, a company statement said.
Other investors in this funding round include, Accel, Addition, Alpha Wave Global, Altimeter, AMP PBC, Appaloosa LP, Baillie Gifford, Bessemer Venture Partners, affiliated funds of BlackRock, Blackstone, D1 Capital Partners, Fidelity Management & Research Company, General Catalyst, Greenoaks, Growth Equity at Goldman Sachs Alternatives, Insight Partners, Jane Street, JPMorganChase through its Security and Resiliency Initiative and Growth Equity Partners, Lightspeed Venture Partners, Menlo Ventures, Morgan Stanley Investment Management, NX1 Capital, Qatar Investment Authority (QIA), Sands Capital, Sequoia Capital, Temasek, TowerBrook, TPG, Whale Rock Capital, and XN.
This funding round also includes a portion of the previously announced investments from Microsoft and Nvidia.
"This fundraising reflects the incredible demand we are seeing from these customers, and we will use this investment to continue building the enterprise-grade products and models they have come to depend on," said Krishna Rao, chief financial officer, Anthropic.
The fresh capital will help the company accelerate its frontier research and boost its product development, and infrastructure expansions.
Anthropic noted that its current run-rate revenue is $14 billion. This figure has grown over 10x annually in each of those past three years, it stated.
Earlier in September, Anthropic had raised $13 billion as part of its Series F funding round led by ICONIQ. The financing round was done at a post-money valuation of $183 billion.
Anthropic, which was founded in 2021 by a group of former OpenAI employees, has become one of the highest valued AI startups.
OpenAI is also reportedly raising a larger round, indicating investors are willing to pump in capital in these AI startups despite their huge burn rate and concerns over AI bubble.
