TAKE THE MONEY AND RUN | Anthropic founders are (each) selling $250 million in shares at IPO.
All 7 Anthropic founders will each cash out about $250M in IPO
As Anthropic barrels toward an enormous IPO that could value it at $1.4 trillion, the company has disclosed a tidbit in its new S-1 filing about how many shares each of its seven co-founders plan to sell.
Each will sell 3,378,378 shares. Anthropic has floated an unusually broad initial price range of $70 to $78 a share. At the midrange of $74, each founder would take in just shy of $250 million.
The seven co-founders are Dario Amodei, CEO; Daniela Amodei, president and chair of the board; Tom Brown, chief compute officer; Jack Clark, head of public benefit; Jared Kaplan, chief science officer (pictured above); Sam McCandlish, chief architect; and Christopher Olah, interpretability research lead.

The 250 million is only a small percent of each of their holdings. They are getting life changing wealth and liquidity but the amount of stock each of them will not be selling at this time is worth billions for each.
