Browser use is one of those features that sounds small until you see someone ship a full workflow in 30 seconds with it. The gap between CLI and seeing your agent actually navigate a page is massive. Were doing similar things with trading data flows and its a game changer for iteration speed.

@DanBochman Apples to oranges.
Anthropic is growing exponentially, so it's hard to compare the company to the mag7 complex. I do think it's fair to ask questions about how truly recurring is their ARR and how sustainable is their growth rate tho

Anthropic is being valued near $1T on a $47B annual revenue run-rate.
For context, here is what other software, internet, and platform companies looked like when they first crossed $1T in market value:
Apple crossed $1T in 2018 with about $229B in annual revenue. Its active installed base had already passed 1.3B devices, giving it one of the largest consumer distribution layers in the world.
Amazon crossed $1T in 2018 with about $178B in annual revenue. It was approaching roughly half of U.S. e-commerce, while AWS had become a major cloud infrastructure business.
Microsoft crossed $1T in 2019 with about $110B in annual revenue. Its commercial cloud business had already reached more than $23B in annual revenue across Azure, Office 365, and other enterprise cloud products.
Alphabet crossed $1T in 2020 with about $162B in annual revenue. Google still controlled roughly 90% of global search, one of the highest-intent advertising markets online.
Meta crossed $1T in 2021 with about $86B in annual revenue. Its family of apps reached more than 3.3B people monthly, creating one of the largest attention and advertising networks ever built.
*Run-rate revenue is not the same as audited annual revenue.
**AI companies have different cost structures than classic software and internet businesses.
