# Anthropic Expands Partnership with Google and Broadcom for AI Compute

> Anthropic has signed what it calls its most significant compute commitment to date, a deal with Google and Broadcom for multiple gigawatts of next generation TPU capacity that starts coming online in 2027. The move deepens Anthropic's reliance on Google's custom silicon rather than the general purpose GPUs most of the industry fights over. The context is demand that keeps outrunning supply. Anthropic says its run rate revenue passed $30 billion in 2026, roughly triple the $9 billion it exited 2025 with, and that its base of enterprise customers spending at least a million dollars a year has doubled to more than a thousand. Numbers like that turn compute from a line item into an existential planning problem. Locking in gigawatts of capacity years ahead is how the frontier labs now hedge. The interesting wrinkle is the Broadcom and Google TPU path, a bet that purpose built accelerators, secured in bulk and early, will be cheaper and more available than chasing the same scarce GPUs as everyone else.
