Anthropic announced the formation of a new enterprise AI services firm in partnership with Blackstone, Hellman & Friedman, and Goldman Sachs. The standalone entity will help companies integrate Anthropic's Claude AI system into their business operations.

The new firm is backed by a consortium including General Atlantic, Leonard Green, Apollo Global Management, GIC, and Sequoia Capital. The company will leverage the consortium's network of portfolio companies to design, build, and maintain enterprise AI deployments.

"Enterprise demand for Claude is significantly outpacing any single delivery model," said Krishna Rao, Chief Financial Officer of Anthropic. The new firm will provide additional operating capability and capital from alternative asset managers.

Jon Gray, President and Chief Operating Officer of Blackstone, stated the company intends to build a scaled firm to deploy Anthropic's technology across portfolio businesses and beyond. The partnership aims to address bottlenecks in enterprise AI adoption by expanding implementation partners.

The firm will target mid-size companies initially, serving portfolio companies of the investment firms and independent businesses. The company plans to focus on industries including healthcare, manufacturing, financial services, retail, real estate, and infrastructure.

Goldman Sachs (NYSE: GS) manages approximately $3.7 trillion in assets under supervision globally as of March 31, 2026, according to the announcement. Blackstone manages over $1.3 trillion in assets under management across various investment strategies.

The new firm's engineers will work with Anthropic's research and product teams to ensure implementations can evolve as AI models improve. The partnership addresses the challenge of deploying AI systems that require frequent updates as underlying models advance.
