Anthropic was co-founded and is currently owned by siblings Dario Amodei and Daniela Amodei. The company is also significantly backed by large investments from Amazon and Alphabet (Google's parent company). Google owns about 14 percent of Anthropic, while Amazon has invested around $8 billion into the company. Despite these financial stakes, both Amazon and Google do not have controlling power over Anthropic, which is structured as a public benefit corporation prioritizing both profit and social impact. The company is also governed by an independent Long-Term Benefit Trust that helps ensure its mission to responsibly develop AI for the long-term benefit of humanity.
