We have signed a new settlement with Amazon that may deepen our current partnership and safe up to 5 gigawatts (GW) of capability for coaching and deploying Claude, together with new Trainium2 capability coming on-line within the first half of this 12 months and practically 1GW whole of Trainium2 and Trainium3 capability coming on-line by the tip of 2026.
We have labored carefully with Amazon since 2023 and over 100,000 clients now run Claude on Amazon Bedrock. Together we launched Project Rainier, one of the biggest compute clusters on this planet, and we at the moment use over a million Trainium2 chips to prepare and serve Claude. Today’s settlement expands our collaboration in 3 ways.
Infrastructure at scale. We are committing greater than $100 billion over the subsequent ten years to AWS applied sciences, securing up to 5GW of new capability to prepare and run Claude. The dedication spans Graviton and Trainium2 by Trainium4 chips, with the choice to buy future generations of Amazon’s customized silicon as they change into out there.
Significant Trainium2 capability is coming on-line in Q2 and scaled Trainium3 capability is predicted to come on-line later this 12 months. Anthropic may even use incremental capability for Claude in Amazon Bedrock. The settlement contains growth of inference in Asia and Europe to higher serve Claude’s rising worldwide buyer base. We proceed to select AWS as our main coaching and cloud supplier for mission-critical workloads.
“Our custom AI silicon offers high performance at significantly lower cost for customers, which is why it’s in such hot demand,” stated Andy Jassy, CEO of Amazon. “Anthropic’s commitment to run its large language models on AWS Trainium for the next decade reflects the progress we’ve made together on custom silicon, as we continue delivering the technology and infrastructure our customers need to build with generative AI.”
Claude Platform on AWS. The full Claude Platform might be out there immediately inside AWS. Same account, similar controls, similar billing, with extra Claude Platform options and no extra credentials or contracts needed. This provides organizations direct entry to Claude whereas assembly their current governance and compliance necessities. Claude stays the one frontier AI mannequin out there to clients on all three of the world’s largest cloud platforms: AWS (Bedrock), Google Cloud (Vertex AI), and Microsoft Azure (Foundry). Claude Platform on AWS is in personal beta. Reach out to your account workforce to request entry.
Continued funding. Amazon is investing $5 billion in Anthropic at this time, with up to an extra $20 billion sooner or later. This builds on the $8 billion Amazon has beforehand invested.
“Our users tell us Claude is increasingly essential to how they work, and we need to build the infrastructure to keep pace with rapidly growing demand,” stated Dario Amodei, CEO and co-founder of Anthropic. “Our collaboration with Amazon will allow us to continue advancing AI research while delivering Claude to our customers, including the more than 100,000 building on AWS.”
Meeting report demand
Enterprise and developer demand for Claude has accelerated in 2026, and alongside it we have now skilled a pointy rise in client utilization throughout our free, Pro, and Max tiers. Our run-rate income has now surpassed $30 billion, up from roughly $9 billion on the finish of 2025. Growth at this tempo locations an inevitable pressure on our infrastructure; our unprecedented client progress, specifically, has impacted reliability and efficiency for free, Pro, Max, and Team customers, particularly throughout peak hours.
Today’s settlement will shortly expand our out there capability, delivering significant compute within the subsequent three months and practically 1GW in whole earlier than the tip of the 12 months. Combined with (*5*) and our diversified {hardware} technique, with workloads unfold throughout a variety of chips, we’re constructing the infrastructure wanted to maintain Claude on the frontier and reliably serve our rising buyer base.
