AI Research Institute Anthropic continues to strengthen its position as a leading AI player in the enterprise space.
Anthropic on Tuesday announced a multi-year partnership with professional services firm Accenture. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed. However, the Wall Street Journal reported that the contract is for three years.
Accenture confirmed the contract is for three years, but declined to comment on the financial details. TechCrunch has reached out to Anthropic for more information.
The two companies will form the Accenture Anthropic Business Group. This includes formal Claude training for Accenture’s 30,000 employees. Anthropic’s Claude Code coding tool will be available to Accenture’s tens of thousands of developers. The companies are also launching a joint initiative to help chief investment officers track the return on their AI investments.
The announcement comes as Anthropic’s market share within the company continues to grow.
According to a new report from Menlo Ventures, Anthropic holds a 40% market share among enterprises and 54% market share when it comes to coding. This marks an increase from Menlo’s previous survey this summer, when Anthropic held 32% of the enterprise market share.
Anthropic last week announced a $200 million deal with cloud data company Snowflake. The company also announced large, similar AI partnerships with both Deloitte and IBM in October.
