Infrastructure and Purchase Commitments
In the amended filing, Anthropic disclosed that it has entered into lease agreements and purchase commitments with an aggregate committed spend of approximately $895.4 billion. The company stated that "substantially all of which is related to compute and infrastructure."
As the company scales, its costs related to these resources have risen. Anthropic reported that compute and infrastructure expenses increased by $14.4 billion for the nine months ended Sept. 30, a 329% increase compared to the same period last year. Regarding this increase, Anthropic stated in the filing, "As our compute and infrastructure capacity grows, the associated compute and infrastructure expenses have increased."
To meet its capacity needs, Anthropic relies on partners including Amazon, Google, and SpaceX, and also utilizes neoclouds for some compute as it seeks to expand.
