Anthropic signs six-year, $13.7 billion compute deal with Trump-linked RUM Group, The Information reports
Anthropic has struck a six-year AI compute procurement agreement worth about $13.7 billion with RUM Group — the Florida infrastructure company formerly known as Rumble — according to The Information, ahead of a planned Nasdaq listing. Anthropic was valued at $965 billion in its May Series H and reports an annualized revenue run rate above $47 billion; Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs have projected an offering valuation as high as $2 trillion. TradingKey notes the political alignment could help Anthropic into federal and defence bids but may also draw conflicts-of-interest scrutiny.
