Anthropic's advanced IPO preparations, including its June 2026 confidential S-1 filing and targeted October listing window with a late-September prospectus and mid-October roadshow, drive the strong 94.6% market-implied probability that it will reach public markets ahead of OpenAI. The company is finalizing a major credit facility and advancing underwriter meetings amid rapid revenue growth in its large language models. OpenAI, which filed shortly after, has shifted internally toward a 2027 debut, with CFO Sarah Friar citing substantial cash burn and a preference for a higher valuation target. While this consensus reflects verified timelines and leadership statements, last-minute regulatory delays, shifting market conditions, or an accelerated OpenAI process could still alter the outcome before resolution.
