Infrastructure Giant CoreWeave Secures Multi-Year Partnership with Anthropic to Power Claude AICoreWeave, the specialized cloud provider for large-scale AI workloads, has announced a landmark multi-year agreement with Anthropic. Under this partnership, CoreWeave will provide the critical infrastructure necessary to run and scale Anthropic’s acclaimed Claude model series.
Dominating the AI Compute Market
The addition of Anthropic to its client roster marks a significant milestone for CoreWeave. The company revealed that it now provides AI infrastructure to 9 out of the 10 largest AI model providers in the world, solidifying its position as the go-to cloud for frontier AI companies.
Michael Intrator, CEO of CoreWeave, stated that the collaboration will initially focus on building out the specialized infrastructure required for Anthropic's next-generation models. The partnership is designed to be highly scalable, ensuring that compute capacity grows in tandem with the increasing global demand for Claude's capabilities.
Unlike giant cloud providers like AWS or Azure, which need to support a variety of services (general-purpose), CoreWeave is built specifically for GPU computing. Anthropic's choice of CoreWeave reflects the fact that world-class AI companies need "bare-metal performance," or direct hardware access, to ensure the fastest possible processing speeds and lowest latency for Claude models.
CoreWeave has a close relationship with NVIDIA, allowing them to typically receive allocations of the latest chip families (such as Blackwell Ultra) before others. Anthropic's use of CoreWeave guarantees them sufficient compute reserves to train models larger than Claude 3.5 or 4 in the future.
Even though Anthropic has Google and Amazon as major investors, the addition of CoreWeave is part of their multi-cloud strategy to avoid vendor lock-in and to diversify risk should one vendor's system fail.
CoreWeave is known for its ability to quickly deploy large clusters (clusters with tens of thousands of GPUs) faster than traditional clouds. This speed of expansion is key to the AI war, where whoever finishes training their model first and releases it to market first will win.
