Anthropic’s accelerated IPO preparations, including its June confidential SEC filing and targeted November listing window, stand as the main driver behind the 94.8% market-implied odds favoring it to reach public markets ahead of OpenAI. The company’s revenue run rate has surged past $100 billion annualized amid strong demand for its Claude large language models, supporting banker meetings and a potential $2 trillion valuation. In contrast, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman stated in mid-September that a 2026 debut would be ill-advised given pressing artificial intelligence safety and alignment priorities, pushing any listing to 2027. Key near-term catalysts include Anthropic’s expected prospectus release and roadshow timing, while OpenAI’s private-company focus on recursive self-improvement risks and regulatory coordination could still shift if safety milestones advance faster than anticipated.
