Anthropic is reportedly on track to generate more than $100 billion in annualized revenue this year.

The company’s revenue run rate reached $65 billion by the end of July, up from $9 billion at the end of 2025.

Growth is being driven by rising business demand for Claude products including Claude Code and Cowork.

The $100 billion figure reflects its current revenue pace projected over a full year, not revenue already booked.

The Economist estimates AI has helped generate around 1 million jobs in the U.S., compared with roughly 200,000 layoffs attributed to AI since mid-2023.

Based on its analysis, about 30% of the estimated job growth came from AI-related infrastructure, including data centers, electrical work and power systems, while roughly 70% came from professional roles such as software developers, engineers and data scientists.

They used Bureau of Labor Statistics data to track job growth and LinkedIn and Burning Glass Institute data to estimate AI-specific jobs.

But the impact is uneven, with customer service and office support jobs already shrinking as AI takes over more routine tasks.
