Method and independence
Independence, method and source policy
This page is the contract between us and you. If the site ever breaks one of these rules, it is a bug and we want to hear about it.
Who runs this site?
AnthropicValuation.com is the independent investment-information service of ClaudeNetwork, part of the International AI Strategy & Architect Network, edited by Rufus Lidman at info@anthropicvaluation.com — the full account of who we are is on /about.
Who we are, in full →How is this site funded?
Nothing here is investment, tax or legal advice. Do your own research.
Is this site affiliated with Anthropic?
Independent. Not affiliated with Anthropic PBCPublic Benefit CorporationA Delaware corporate form allowing directors to weigh a stated mission alongside shareholder return.Anthropic is a PBC. That is a governance fact to read before assuming profit maximisation is the board's only duty.FULL DEFINITION →.
Anthropic and Claude are trademarks of Anthropic PBC, used here nominatively and descriptively only. This site is an independent service by ClaudeNetwork, part of the International AI Strategy & Architect Network. We are not sponsored or endorsed by Anthropic PBC, and also not associated with any underwriter, broker, shareholder, employee, adviser or any other party that stands to gain from a listing — nor with any competitor, short seller or derivatives trader that stands to gain from a listing failing.
We carry no advertising, no affiliates and no sponsorship. ClaudeMaster.ai, linked from every page, is a sister service in the same network, not an advertiser: no money changes hands in either direction. We earn nothing whether you invest in Anthropic or not. That is its raison d'être: we are the 100% objective party, presenting fully transparent data on this listing and valuation from every perspective and angle, including the ones that argue for or against it.
Is any of this investment advice?
Nothing on this site is investment, tax or legal advice, an offer, a solicitation or a recommendation to buy or sell anything. We do not know your circumstances and we are not licensed to advise you on them. Private company valuations are uncertain by construction, pre-IPO information is incomplete by law, and an IPO may never happen. Do your own research, and take professional advice before acting. DYOR.

Sourcing rules
- Every figure carries a source URL and the date it was last verified. No exceptions.
- A figure with no named primary or press source is not published as an estimate — it is shown as “Not public”, with a note on which document will settle it.
- Current figures expire after seven days and are greyed automatically until re-verified. Historical figures are verified once and stay verified.
- Primary sources take precedence over press reports whenever both exist.
The publishing gate
Two paths. Filings found on EDGAR publish automatically, because EDGAR is the primary source itself. Anything sourced from the press queues for a single human review each day at 08:30 CEST. Items that have not been reviewed are not displayed at all — not as “unverified”, not as a placeholder. A gap is better than an uncertain number.
Press coverage is given a draft stance tag (bull, bear or neutral) and a one-sentence paraphrase by a model before that human review; the tag is a suggestion, never a publication. Stance tagging runs on a European model (Mistral) with no stake in Anthropic, its investors, or the US-China AI race we cover — Anthropic’s own model and models from its largest shareholders are excluded for that reason.
Corrections
When a published figure changes, the old value stays visible in the changelog with its date. We do not silently overwrite numbers. If you can show that something here is wrong, send the source and it will be corrected or removed.
Data about you
The only personal data we hold is an email address, and only if you asked for the S-1S-1The public registration statement containing financials, risk factors and the principal stockholders table.No public Anthropic S-1 exists on EDGAR. Until one appears, every financial detail in circulation is second-hand.FULL DEFINITION → notification. Consent is the legal basis, the purpose is that single notification, and you can withdraw it at any time with one click. No advertising trackers, no profiling, no sale of data to anyone.
One email the minute the S-1 hits EDGAR.
