Anthropic, the San Francisco-based AI firm known for its Claude models, is reportedly set to unveil its IPO prospectus shortly after Labor Day, according to sources. This move follows its confidential submission of a draft Form S-1 to the SEC in June and positions Anthropic as a key player in the AI sector’s race to the public markets, alongside OpenAI.
