Four Architectures, Seven CounterpartiesNarrow moat

Anthropic (ANT) — moat facet

Anthropic runs training and serving across four different accelerator architectures, which buys real negotiating room and makes four suppliers into four creditors.

Anthropic manages compute "as a single, fungible pool from multiple strategic partners" and says it will "dynamically direct available compute between workloads based on where the marginal unit is expected to be most productive" at any given time1. The engineering that allows it is a "multi-chip compute architecture across AWS Trainium, Google TPUs, NVIDIA GPUs, and AMD GPUs", which lets the company "orchestrate workloads to optimize for price and performance"2.

Every silicon supplier is also a source of funding.

Four architectures is unusual. Most buyers of frontier compute standardise on one, because porting a training stack between accelerators is expensive. Anthropic has paid that cost in order to be able to play its suppliers against each other, and the pool is explicitly shared between customer serving, model development and "internal usage of Claude"3.

The same partners finance it. Undrawn note purchase agreements provide $20,000 million from Google, $15,000 million from Amazon and $42,000 million from an infrastructure partner, $77,000 million in total with nothing drawn at 30 June 20264. Separately, AMD "has provided a commitment to purchase up to $5.0 billion of our Class N common stock", available in increments as GPU delivery and deployment milestones are achieved, the first expected in 20275.

So the architecture and the capital structure are the same decision. Each supplier sells hardware and buys paper, which lowers Anthropic's cost of capital and raises its dependence on the people it is meant to be playing off.

The pool reaches past data centres. Anthropic has published a Model Hardware Standard that "enables AI agents to operate lab and manufacturing equipment such as microscopes, liquid handlers, and off-the-shelf robotic arms"6, which is the same orchestration idea applied to machines that are not accelerators.

Two of the counterparties sit outside the commitments table altogether. The AMD hardware supply agreement sets no fixed dollar figure, and the filing says that procuring the full initial tranche of Helios rack-scale capacity in calendar 2027 would mean aggregate spending above $20.0 billion, "not included in the contractual commitments table"7. A separate set of agreements with Nscale, signed in August 2026, commits up to about $44.6 billion into 2033 for NVIDIA GPU capacity8.

The number that tests the fungibility is compute and infrastructure expense against revenue, 55% in the first half of 20269. If genuine substitution between four architectures is worth anything, that ratio should keep falling as capacity is added; if it stops falling, the pool is a portfolio rather than a lever.

Moat trajectory: Holding steady

Four architectures in place; $77,000M of committed note capacity undrawn.

The financing headroom behind the pool; drawing it converts supplier goodwill into claims on the company.

  9. Moat Explorer calcThe number that tests the fungibility is compute and infrastructure expense against revenue, 55% in the first half of 2026.
    Moat Explorer calculation from the figures in Anthropic's Form S-1. Trailing twelve months to 30 June 2026, computed as FY2025 less H1 2025 plus H1 2026: revenue 4,585 - 1,163 + 16,286 = 19,708; net loss (41,965) - (12,969) + (80,748) = (109,744); operating loss (8,060) - (2,135) + (693) = (6,618); net loss per share (23.04) - (7.25) + (39.88) = (55.67); United States revenue 3,362 - 820 + 11,763 = 14,305 and International 1,223 - 343 + 4,523 = 5,403. Market value 3,041,435 thousand shares outstanding at 30 June 2026 (853,394 preferred + 2,157,398 Class A + 30,643 Class N) multiplied by the $589.0095 Series H-1 issue price = $1,791,434M. Multiples: 1,791,434 / 19,708 = 90.9 times trailing revenue; 1,791,434 / (16,286 x 2) = 55.0 times annualised first-half revenue; 1,791,434 / 4,585 = 390.7 times FY2025 revenue. Revenue growth 386 / 41 - 1 = +841% (2024), 4,585 / 386 - 1 = +1,088% (2025), 16,286 / 1,163 - 1 = +1,300% (H1 2026 against H1 2025). United States share of revenue 34 / 41 = 82.9% (2023), 263 / 386 = 68.1% (2024), 3,362 / 4,585 = 73.3% (2025), 11,763 / 16,286 = 72.2% (H1 2026), 14,305 / 19,708 = 72.6% (trailing twelve months). H1 2026 non-operating charge (80,748) - (693) = (80,055). First-half operating expenses against revenue: compute 8,945 / 16,286 = 55%, personnel 3,152 / 16,286 = 19%, sales and marketing 3,168 / 16,286 = 19%. Cash and short-term investments plus undrawn committed notes 131,651 + 77,000 = 208,651. The Bartz settlement against 2025 revenue 1,500 / 4,585 = 32.7%. Compute and infrastructure spend 2023-H1 2026 433 + 2,522 + 7,326 + 8,945 = 19,226 against cumulative revenue 41 + 386 + 4,585 + 16,286 = 21,298. From the Note 8 functional expense table, implied gross margin (revenue less cost of revenue, over revenue): (41 - 26) / 41 = 36.6% in 2023, (386 - 752) / 386 = -94.8% in 2024, (4,585 - 2,773) / 4,585 = 39.5% in 2025, (1,163 - 1,019) / 1,163 = 12.4% in H1 2025 and (16,286 - 2,380) / 16,286 = 85.4% in H1 2026; research and development over cost of revenue 9,741 / 2,380 = 4.09 times. Compute commitments at 30 June 2026: non-cancelable purchase commitments of 265.6 plus leases not yet commenced of 321.4 = 587.0 billion dollars, against 54.559 + 50.2 = 104.8 billion at 31 December 2025, a rise of 5.6 times in six months; 587.0 / 19.708 = 29.8 times trailing revenue and 587.0 / 131.651 = 4.5 times cash and short-term investments. The named counterparty commitments 161.2 + 120.5 + 114.5 + 110.0 + 44.6 + 44.9 + 20.0 = 615.7 billion. Valuation: the reported 965 billion dollar Series H post-money over trailing revenue 965.0 / 19.708 = 49.0 times, and over annualised first-half revenue 965.0 / 32.572 = 29.6 times. Share counts at 30 June 2026 multiplied by the Series H-1 issue price, 3,041,435 thousand x 589.0095 = 1,791,434 thousand dollars, which does not reproduce the reported figure. Headcount about 940 to about 5,300 is a rise of about 5.6 times while revenue rose about 1,200% over the same period. Commitments against the contracted book: 587,000 / 10,800 = 54.4 times. Net loss against operating loss over the trailing twelve months: 109,744 / 6,618 = 16.6 times. The three commitments owed to companies that also sell models against Anthropic, Google plus Amazon plus Microsoft, 114,500 + 110,000 + 44,900 = 269,400, which is about 44% of the 615,700 named and therefore not most of it. Cash plus undrawn committed notes against total commitments, 208,651 / 587,000 = 36%, about a third. International share of revenue: 7 / 41 = 17.1% in 2023, 123 / 386 = 31.9% in 2024, 1,223 / 4,585 = 26.7% in 2025, 343 / 1,163 = 29.5% in H1 2025, 4,523 / 16,286 = 27.8% in H1 2026 and 5,403 / 19,708 = 27.4% over the trailing twelve months. Revenue from customers above $100,000 as a share of first-half revenue, 12,000 / 16,286 = 74%, and revenue per such customer 12,000 / 6,000 = $2.0m for the half against 870 / 600 = $1.45m a year earlier. — 2023 to H1 2026 · publ.
