Andrew FeldmanWill MarshallBrad GerstnerChamath PalihapitiyaJason CalacanisDavid SacksDavid Friedberg
The IPO pendulum is shifting toward companies listing at $1 billion to $5 billion, with Planet creating roughly 90% of its post-SPAC value in years three and four.Cerebras’s $18.50 IPO followed a difficult 9.5 years, while its chip targets 15–18-times faster OpenAI workloads; orbital data centers offer a potential two-to-three-year cost catalyst, but distributed clustering remains unresolved.

Anthropic’s reported annualized revenue surged from $1 billion at the end of 2024 to $30 billion by late March or April 2026, with more than 1,000 enterprises reportedly spending over $1 million annually.The ramp points to a near-infinite intelligence TAM, but revenue comparability, profitability, compute constraints, and incumbents’ fortress balance sheets keep margin quality unresolved.Mythos creates a possible six-month cyber-defense window, while OpenClaw’s repricing could test whether Anthropic can fairly bundle its own agent without triggering discrimination concerns.
