Anthropic's confidential S-1 filing in June 2026 and active preparations for an October Nasdaq listing, including a late-September prospectus and mid-October marketing push, have driven the 96.7% market-implied probability that it will IPO ahead of OpenAI. Recent reports highlight Anthropic's progress toward a potential $2 trillion valuation, supported by a $965 billion private round and a $15 billion credit facility, while OpenAI has shifted toward a 2027 timeline to pursue a $1 trillion+ valuation amid market volatility and internal preferences for extended private operations. This timeline gap reflects Anthropic's faster execution in the competitive large language model sector. Realistic risks that could alter the outcome include further regulatory scrutiny of AI companies, delays from SEC reviews or financing finalization, or an unexpected acceleration in OpenAI's process.
