Will Anthropic or OpenAI IPO first? Prediction Market OddsAnthropic is emerging as the artificial intelligence company most likely to complete an initial public offering ahead of OpenAI, setting up a potentially landmark debut for one of the sector’s most closely watched startups. A listing before the end of 2027 would give public investors direct exposure to a leading developer of large language models and enterprise AI systems.
The company, known for its Claude chatbot and safety-focused approach to AI development, has attracted major backing from technology and cloud-computing partners while expanding its commercial business. Its path to the public markets may be viewed as more straightforward than OpenAI’s, which has a more complex corporate structure and deep strategic ties to Microsoft.
An Anthropic IPO would likely become one of the most significant technology listings of the decade, testing public-market appetite for high-growth AI firms. It would also intensify scrutiny of the economics behind advanced AI development, including infrastructure spending, enterprise adoption and the long-term profitability of foundation model companies.
