Anthropic’s Surge Fuels AWS Growth
Anthropic, an artificial intelligence (AI) start-up, has reported staggering revenue growth, jumping from $1 billion in annualized revenue in January 2025 to $14 billion by January 2026. This tenfold increase positions Anthropic as a significant player in the AI tools market, driving increased spending at Amazon Web Services (AWS), its primary cloud partner.
AWS saw a revenue surge of 24% year-over-year, reaching $129 billion in sales in 2025, partly due to its collaboration with Anthropic. If this growth trend continues, AWS could generate $250 billion in annual revenue within five years, resulting in approximately $86 billion in earnings from its cloud services alone.
