Anthropic is barreling toward what could be the largest IPO in history, with investors and bankers reportedly targeting a valuation near $2 trillion and a raise exceeding $86 billion when the offering launches as soon as mid-October — but retail investors still can't buy Anthropic stock directly.

The next best thing: eight publicly traded companies that already hold direct equity stakes, several of which are big enough to move the parent stock on earnings day.

1. Amazon.com Inc — Anthropic's largest backer committed up to $33 billion total, including a fresh $5 billion tranche tied to an April 2026 deal in which Anthropic agreed to spend more than $100 billion on AWS cloud technology over the next decade. Amazon's 10-Q already booked billions in fair-value gains as notes converted to equity.

2. Alphabet Inc — Google invested $13.3 billion since late 2022 and committed up to $40 billion more in cash and Google Cloud TPU capacity. Alphabet's own filings mark its combined Anthropic and SpaceX private stakes at roughly $124 billion.

3. Microsoft Corp — Committed up to $5 billion in November 2025 alongside a new Azure compute partnership, part of a broader push to diversify beyond OpenAI.

4. NVIDIA Corp — Pledged up to $10 billion the same week, a deal that helped push Anthropic's valuation toward $350 billion at the time and deepened Nvidia's ties across every major AI lab.

5. Salesforce — The software giant has invested through Salesforce Ventures in every Anthropic round since 2023, starting with roughly $50 million. The stake is now worth about $5.1 billion, and a $2.6 billion unrealized gain contributed $2.53 to adjusted earnings per share in its fiscal second quarter report, helping send Salesforce shares up 23% in a single session.

6. Zoom Communications — An approximately $97 million bet placed via Zoom Ventures back in May 2023 has ballooned to a $3.13 billion stake as of Zoom's latest quarterly filing.

7. SK Telecom Co Ltd — The Korean telecom giant's original $100 million check from 2023 has grown into a stake worth roughly $2.5 billion, and management added to the position in 2026 rather than sell ahead of a possible IPO.

8. ServiceNow — ServiceNow joined Anthropic's $13 billion Series F in September 2025 and followed up with a January 2026 partnership embedding Claude into its workflow-automation platform for enterprise customers.

The Catch: None of these are pure plays — Anthropic exposure sits diluted inside the larger businesses with valuations marked to private funding rounds rather than a public market.

Anthropic's own executives have not confirmed a listing valuation, even as its confidential S-1 moves through SEC review. But for investors unwilling to wait on the sidelines, these eight tickers already have skin in the game.

Building Wealth Across More Than Just the Market

Building a resilient portfolio means thinking beyond a single asset or market trend. Economic cycles shift, sectors rise and fall, and no one investment performs well in every environment. That's why many investors look to diversify with platforms that provide access to real estate, fixed-income opportunities, precious metals, and even self-directed retirement accounts. By spreading exposure across multiple asset classes, it becomes easier to manage risk, capture steady returns, and create long-term wealth that isn't tied to the fortunes of just one company or industry.

Arrived

Backed by Jeff Bezos, Arrived Homes makes real estate investing accessible with a low barrier to entry. Investors can buy fractional shares of single-family rentals and vacation homes starting with as little as $100. This allows everyday investors to diversify into real estate, collect rental income, and build long-term wealth without needing to manage properties directly.

Skybound Entertainment

Entertainment franchises can become valuable long-term assets when they successfully expand across multiple platforms. Skybound Entertainment, the company behind The Walking Dead and Invincible, develops original intellectual property that spans comics, television, film, video games, merchandise, and licensing. With more than 250 IPs in its portfolio and a strategy focused on retaining franchise rights while scaling successful stories across media, Skybound offers investors exposure to the growing entertainment and creator economy through a private company rather than traditional public market investments.

Green Coffee Company

Coffee is a daily staple for millions of consumers, but investors rarely get direct exposure to the brands and supply chains behind it. Green Coffee Company offers a way to participate in the growth of the coffee market through its exclusive U.S. and Canadian distribution rights for Colombian brand Juan Valdez. With the brand expanding across major retailers including Target, Walgreens and Kroger, and GCC reporting 26X revenue growth over four years, the company is positioning itself to bring a well-known Colombian coffee brand to more consumers across North America.

American PowerGen

As artificial intelligence drives a surge in electricity demand, reliable power generation is becoming a critical part of the technology ecosystem. American PowerGen is developing natural gas-fired power plants in Texas, a fast-growing market fueled by AI data centers, manufacturing expansion, and population growth. By advancing projects through permitting, fuel supply, and grid interconnection, the company is positioning itself to help meet rising energy needs while offering investors exposure to the infrastructure supporting the next wave of AI and industrial growth.

Qnetic

As electricity demand rises alongside AI, data centers, and renewable energy, long-duration energy storage is becoming increasingly important. Qnetic is developing a kinetic energy storage system designed to provide long-lasting, chemical-free electricity storage, offering investors exposure to the infrastructure supporting a more resilient and reliable power grid.
