Trader consensus on Polymarket gives Anthropic a 66.5% implied probability of IPOing first over OpenAI, driven by Anthropic's aggressive timeline targeting as early as October 2026 amid banker discussions with Goldman Sachs and JPMorgan, contrasted with OpenAI's internal discord where CFO Sarah Friar has flagged revenue shortfalls, massive compute commitments projecting $121 billion in 2028 spending, and sidelining from key planning. Anthropic's enterprise momentum in coding tools and ARR growth has propelled its private valuation past OpenAI's $852 billion to near $900 billion, with recent $50 billion funding talks and faster path to cash positivity bolstering first-mover positioning. Watch for S-1 filings and Q2 earnings previews as pivotal catalysts in this AI lab IPO race.
