Anthropic has released its IPO price range, valuing the company at approximately $1 trillion based on market cap, or $1.4 trillion on a fully diluted basis including employee and charity shares. The price range is set between $70 and $78 per share. The company aims to raise $90.4 billion, potentially reaching $100 billion with the greenshoe option, which would make it the largest IPO ever, surpassing SpaceX's $86 billion. This valuation is significantly lower than the $2 trillion figure previously discussed, though it remains higher than OpenAI's recent $1.25 trillion valuation.

Investors can subscribe via platforms like Trade Republic and Scalable, with some using leverage to maximize allocation chances. Commentators described the IPO as a 'once in a lifetime' opportunity, noting that the valuation has become more realistic compared to earlier expectations. One host expressed willingness to invest at the lower valuation, highlighting the shift from previous high-end estimates.
