Recent reporting that Anthropic plans to release its IPO prospectus after Labor Day, with an investor event in mid-September and a targeted listing in late September or early October, has anchored trader consensus around October 2026 at 87% implied probability. The company’s confidential S-1 filing in June, rapid revenue growth to tens of billions in annualized run rate, and $965 billion private valuation have positioned it ahead of OpenAI, whose timeline has slipped into 2027. Strong demand for AI exposure, combined with plans for secondary share sales and extended lockups, supports the narrow window while underscoring execution risks around SEC review and market conditions.

An IPO refers to Anthropic shares becoming listed and open for trading on a public securities exchange, whether through a traditional initial public offering or a direct listing.
If Anthropic goes public through a merger, acquisition, or absorption by an entity that is already publicly traded, including a special purpose acquisition company, this market will resolve to "No IPO before 2028".
If no IPO occurs by December 31, 2027, 11:59 PM ET, the market will resolve to "No IPO before 2028".
Announcements, filings, or scheduling of an IPO will not suffice; this market will resolve after public trading has begun.
Resolution will be based on information from the primary exchange.
