Anthropic has filed plans to sell 825 million shares at an indicative price of $70 to $78 each, setting out the terms of a major public offering for the maker of Claude. The company has applied to list on Nasdaq under the ticker ANT.
The proposed share sale was detailed in an updated registration statement filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on November 10. The price range is not final, and the filing describes a planned offering rather than a completed stock market debut.
At the proposed prices, the shares would represent a substantial public offering. The listing is also being watched as a measure of investor appetite for companies building advanced AI systems, though the filing alone does not establish how the shares will perform once trading begins.
Filing outlines risks and founder voting control
Anthropic’s registration statement discusses potential risks from advanced AI, including the possibility of severe harm if the technology is not developed and deployed responsibly. It also warns that the company’s positions on AI safety and regulation could expose it to political backlash or regulatory action.
The filing says Anthropic’s seven co-founders, led by chief executive Dario Amodei and president Daniela Amodei, are expected to retain just over half of shareholder voting power after the listing. That arrangement would leave the founders with voting control even as public investors buy shares.
The proposed offer gives investors a defined price range and share count, but final terms and the start of trading remain subject to the IPO process. Anthropic’s filing is available from the SEC.
