"The new firm is a standalone entity with Anthropic engineering resources embedded directly within its team, a structure that mirrors Palantir's forward-deployment model and undercuts traditional consultants."
"For every dollar companies spend on software, they spend six on services, a ratio that has made consulting a multitrillion-dollar industry and that AI-native firms are now positioning to disrupt."
"Blackstone President and COO Jon Gray stated the firm aims to break down 'one of the most significant bottlenecks to enterprise AI adoption,' namely the scarcity of engineers who can implement frontier AI systems."
"Sequoia partner Julien Bek argued that the world's next great company won't sell software at all, but outcomes: legal services, financial analysis, insurance processing delivered by AI while billed like consulting."
Anthropic has launched a new AI-native enterprise services company in partnership with Blackstone, Hellman & Friedman, and Goldman Sachs, backed by $1.5 billion. This venture aims to integrate Anthropic's engineers and models into mid-size businesses, competing with traditional consulting firms. The initiative targets the multitrillion-dollar consulting industry, focusing on delivering outcomes rather than just software. The new firm combines implementation capabilities with ownership of AI models, addressing the shortage of engineers for enterprise AI adoption.
