Anthropic investors weigh a $2 trillion to $3 trillion valuation ambition

The valuation target would exceed SpaceX's reported $1.7 trillion milestone, according to a new report cited by MarketWatch.

Some investors in Anthropic are reportedly looking beyond recent startup benchmarks, with expectations that the AI company could pursue a valuation in the $2 trillion to $3 trillion range if it explores an IPO, MarketWatch reports.

That potential valuation ambition would place Anthropic above SpaceX’s $1.7 trillion milestone cited in the same coverage.

The discussion reflects how investor expectations for major AI listings are being framed against the largest private-market scale achievements.
