Anthropic's Path to Surpassing NVIDIA: A Three to Seven Year Timeline

Anthropic reached $10B in annual revenue in under four years, significantly faster than peers like ServiceNow (20 years) and Shopify (18 years). Based on growth projections, the company could surpass NVIDIA's $4.8 trillion market cap in three to seven years depending on whether growth continues, decelerates, or normalizes. However, customer concentration remains a key risk factor.
