About

I've hunted more product than anyone else! Call it an obsession or call it a side hustle run amok โ€” I love learning from other makers and helping them nail their launches on Product Hunt. https://chrismessina.me/hunt-me If you'd like to work with me on your launch, book time with me here: https://book.chrismessina.me/

Anthropic raises $65B in Series H funding at $965B post-money valuation

That's a lot of AGI, with some substantial firepower:

Anthropic has raised $65 billion in Series H funding led by Altimeter Capital, Dragoneer, Greenoaks, and Sequoia Capital, valuing the company at $965 billion post-money.

From Coatue, who lead the round:

...what s changed since three months ago (the last round was only three months ago, believe it or not)?

Three things:

  1. We ve seen the shift from co-pilots that help make us more efficient to agents actually doing long-form work tasks on our behalf. This has meant an explosion in both productivity and ROI for customers.

  2. Anthropic introduced Mythos Preview, a whole new model class that demonstrates a step change in intelligence level as seen in the METR chart below. It not only shows dramatic improvement to coding and long-running agents, it is also defining a new frontier for security.

  3. And finally > use cases spreading from coding to everything else.

Repo Prompt is now free and soon to be open source

From @eric_provencher 's announcement post:

A couple of months ago, I was approached by @romainhuet, OpenAI s head of developer experience, to join his team and help push my vision for building with these models on a scale that I could never achieve on my own. Of course, before agreeing to anything, my first request was to ensure the dedicated users of Repo Prompt, who supported my journey until this point, were taken care of. If you re reading this and you purchased an annual or lifetime license, check your inbox!

I've been an active user of Repo Prompt since I hunted it, and while I'm a little sad that it'll no longer be maintained, this bodes well for OpenAI Codex users.
