Anthropic files to list on Nasdaq as ANT, disclosing $16.3B in first-half revenue
Anthropic filed its S-1 with the SEC on October 26 for a Nasdaq Global Select listing under the ticker ANT; the share count and price range are not set.

Why it matters: For the first time a frontier lab's financials are public, which gives every argument about AI pricing, compute spend and margins a real baseline.
