Anthropic's S-1 shows its 965B USD private valuation has outrun its venture backers: Menlo Ventures' 14B USD stake is worth only 1.5 per cent. Amazon fares better, holding convertible notes with 6.2B USD of principal that its own filings value at 97.9B USD, on top of roughly 18B USD invested in total. https://techcrunch.com/2026/10/27/vcs-will-make-billions-on-anthropics-ipo-but-amazon-is-set-to-make-m…more/ #Tech #Startup #News #AI

Anthropic's IPO filings show Amazon is the big winner: its convertible notes, valued at 97.9B USD, could convert into up to 1.84 billion shares, though a cap limits the stake to 12% of the company. Backed VCs from Menlo, Sequoia, Sound Ventures and Spark Capital will also cash out billions, yet none holds 5%. https://techcrunch.com/2026/10/27/vcs-will-make-billions-on-anthropics-ipo-but-amazon-is-set-to-make-much…more/ #AIagent #AI #GenAI #EnterpriseAI #Amazon
