Institutional dossier

The documented history of Anthropic Long-Term Benefit Trust: chronology, people, research, capital and compute, and governance. Every statement opens its source and its limits.

Records dated 2017-06-12 to 2026-10-15 · 0 undated

33 claims · 19 sources · 33 not editorially accepted. The counts describe this selection. They do not measure completeness or independent confirmation.

Scope, evidence and limits

Description: The body Anthropic described in September 2023 as an independent trust of financially disinterested Trustees, holding Class T stock with phased rights to elect directors. Its Trust Agreement is not public.

The records are grouped automatically. No human inspection of the selected claims, source paths or framing is recorded for this dossier. Each source passage shows how it was checked.

The dossier is computed from existing records. It is not a continuous history of the institution, and a missing record does not mean that an event or relationship did not happen. The chronology uses the dates of events and reports, not the date the public could first have known of them. Later sources can describe earlier events.

    Qualification and date notes

    The Trust’s holding of the Class T stock rests on Anthropic’s statements; no share register was inspected. An election right is not ownership, and whether the Trust controls Anthropic needs legal interpretation and is set aside. The latest inspected certificate (filed 2025-07-03) keeps the same allocation of a five-member board.

    The First Phase-In Date in the certificates. The later phase dates depend on board determinations that were not published (see the phase-in provisions); no end is recorded.

    A consent right recorded as a veto; the Trust’s holding of the Class T stock rests on Anthropic’s statements.
