Helpful breakdown. Thank you.
So, Anthropic reportedly did $16.8bn in Q3: ~46% QoQ growth versus >140% in Q2.
Using the inferred ~$74bn September exit run-rate:
• Continuing ~6.6% monthly growth → ~$89bn by December
• $100bn year-end bogey → ~10.7% monthly growth in Q4
Growth has technically decelerated from a very high level but more importantly the $100bn year-end bogey requires Q4 reaccelerating (which may or may not happen).
