Anthropic secures $5B from Amazon, inks 5GW compute deal for Claude

By PulseAugur Editorial · [5 sources] ·

Anthropic has secured a significant expansion of its collaboration with Amazon, including an additional $5 billion investment and a commitment for up to 5 gigawatts of compute capacity over the next decade. This deal aims to address the rapidly growing demand for Anthropic's Claude models, which has strained existing infrastructure and led to performance issues. The expanded partnership will leverage Amazon's Trainium chips, with new capacity coming online progressively through 2026, and will also make the full Claude Platform available directly within AWS.
