Anthropic announced two additions to its Claude Partner Network on Wednesday: a tiered Services Track that ranks consulting firms by how deeply they have deployed Claude for clients, and a Partner Hub portal that lets companies find qualified implementation partners.
The Services Track has three tiers. Entry into the Select tier calls for a minimum of 10 practitioners who have earned Claude certification, at least two client deployments running in production, and one publicly available customer endorsement. To reach Preferred status, firms must clear higher bars: 100 certified practitioners, 15 customers with active deployments, and three published endorsements. At the top of the ladder, Global Premier status demands 1,000 certified practitioners, deployments with 100 customers spanning no fewer than three regions, 15 public endorsements, and a jointly developed business plan backed by named executive sponsors, the company said.
When Anthropic established the Claude Partner Network in March, it backed the initiative with a $100 million commitment covering training, technical support, and co-marketing resources for partners. Since the program opened, over 40,000 companies have sought membership, and the Anthropic Partner Academy has issued Claude certifications to upward of 10,000 consultants.
