Anthropic said it has created the Anthropic Public Benefit Fund, a new wholly owned entity dedicated entirely to the public interest. The fund will receive an initial 5% stake in the company. Anthropic added that, if the company’s value rises by 50% over a set baseline, the board may approve additional contributions of up to 2% equity at each step. According to the company, that structure means roughly 20% of Anthropic’s shares are expected to be committed to philanthropic purposes. The announcement also said Anthropic’s co-founders have pledged to donate 80% of their personal equity, while about half of the company’s employees have donated part of their equity through a matching program since the company was founded.
