Anthropic and Amazon Expand Collaboration for Up to 5 Gigawatts of New Compute
Anthropic has signed a major expanded agreement with Amazon committing over $100 billion to AWS technologies over ten years, securing up to 5GW of compute capacity for training and deploying Claude across Trainium2 through Trainium4 chips. Amazon is investing an additional $5 billion in Anthropic today, with up to $20 billion more possible in the future, building on $8 billion previously invested. The deal includes nearly 1GW of Trainium2 and Trainium3 capacity coming online by end of 2026, expanded inference in Asia and Europe, and the full Claude Platform becoming available directly within AWS. Anthropic disclosed its run-rate revenue has surpassed $30 billion, up from approximately $9 billion at end of 2025.
OpenAI and Amazon Partner to Build Stateful Runtime Environment for AI Agents on AWS
OpenAI and Amazon Web Services announced a partnership to build a stateful runtime environment for AI agents, designed to manage agent working states including memories, tool connections, and user permissions, running on Amazon Bedrock. The deal includes a $15 billion Amazon investment in OpenAI (with up to $35 billion more contingent on conditions), a $100 billion expansion of compute commitments using Amazon Trainium chips over 8 years, and makes AWS the exclusive third-party cloud provider for OpenAI Frontier. The arrangement exploits a legal distinction between stateful runtime environments and stateless APIs, allowing OpenAI to work with AWS while Microsoft retains exclusive rights to host OpenAI's stateless API calls. This marks a significant loosening of OpenAI's exclusive cloud relationship with Microsoft, mirroring a parallel diversification trend with Anthropic across cloud providers.
Anthropic Expands Google Cloud TPU Usage to Up to One Million TPUs in Tens-of-Billions Deal
Anthropic announced a major expansion of its Google Cloud infrastructure, planning to use up to one million TPUs in a deal worth tens of billions of dollars, with over a gigawatt of capacity expected online in 2026. The expansion is driven by rapidly growing enterprise demand—Anthropic now serves over 300,000 business customers with large accounts growing nearly 7x year-over-year. Anthropic maintains a diversified compute strategy across Google TPUs, Amazon Trainium, and NVIDIA GPUs, while reaffirming its primary training partnership with Amazon via Project Rainier. The company also notes the expanded compute will support alignment research and responsible deployment at scale.
