Anthropic to expand international workforce and AI team

Anthropic plans to triple its international workforce and expand its AI team by fivefold to meet increased demand for its Claude models globally. Nearly 80% of consumer usage for Claude is from outside the US, with countries like South Korea, Australia, and Singapore leading in per-person usage.

The company’s valuation is $183 billion, backed by Google (GOOGL) and Amazon (AMZN), and its revenue has grown to over $5 billion. Anthropic is hiring over 100 new positions in Dublin, London, and Zurich, with plans to open its first Asian office in Tokyo. Microsoft (MSFT) recently signed a deal with Anthropic to integrate Claude models into its Copilot assistant.
