Anthropic was founded in 2021 by Dario Amodei (CEO) and Daniela Amodei (President), along with a team of leading AI researchers who previously held senior positions at OpenAI. The company is headquartered in San Francisco, California and has established itself as the premier enterprise-focused artificial intelligence platform, developing the Claude family of large language models with a distinctive emphasis on AI safety, interpretability, and reliability.
Anthropic's founding thesis was that advanced AI systems need to be developed with safety as a core technical priority — not an afterthought. This philosophy produced constitutional AI, interpretability research, and responsible scaling policies. Far from limiting commercial appeal, this safety-first positioning has become a major competitive advantage in enterprise sales, where reliability, auditability, and risk management are purchasing requirements.
The Claude model family currently includes Claude Opus 4.6 (high-complexity reasoning), Claude Sonnet 4.6 (balanced performance and cost), and Claude Haiku 4.5 (fast, efficient tasks). Claude is available directly through claude.ai, via API, and through cloud platforms including AWS, Google Cloud, and Microsoft Azure.
