Anthropic and Infosys have announced a strategic partnership to develop custom AI agents for large enterprises in sectors including telecoms, financial services, manufacturing, and software development. The partnership responds to growing demand from companies for artificial intelligence that can not only support tasks but also independently execute complex processes within highly regulated environments. The core of the partnership lies in the combination of Anthropic's Claude models, including Claude Code, with Infosys Topaz, Infosys' AI-focused services and platform offering.
