The AI startup has agreed to spend up to $120.5 billion on computing capacity with SpaceX through 2029, a figure the company disclosed in its IPO paperwork. The contracts translate to roughly $3.1 billion per month beginning in December 2026 and are tied to SpaceX data‑centre capacity in Memphis, Tennessee. They also allow Anthropic to terminate the deals with 90‑day notice starting in early 2027, the report added.
SpaceX’s AI division posted its first profit in the quarter, helping Elon Musk’s goal of reaching $100 billion in annualised revenue by the end of 2026.
