Anthropic’s valuation in the secondary market has risen to $1.2 trillion, with shares trading at that level on secondary trading platform Caplight, according to Caplight CEO Javier Avalos.
According to Odaily, Avalos said Anthropic is the most sought-after company in the venture capital secondary market.
Rainmaker Securities CEO Glenn Anderson, whose firm focuses on private securities trading, said he has also observed transactions priced at a $1.2 trillion valuation, but noted such trades remain rare due to a limited number of sellers.
Less than three months ago, reports said Anthropic’s valuation reached $1 trillion, surpassing OpenAI for the first time. OpenAI had been valued far higher than Anthropic in recent years, but is currently valued at $908 billion on Caplight, the report said.
Avalos said Anthropic’s $1.2 trillion valuation represents about 550% year-over-year growth. Anthropic’s valuation was $965 billion in its Series H financing round announced in May.
