Anthropic, the AI company backed by Google, is negotiating to buy Decart AI for about $6 billion (roughly Rs 51,000 crore), people familiar with the matter told The Economic Times and NDTV Profit. If completed, the deal would be Anthropic's largest known acquisition and comes ahead of its expected initial public offering. The startup's software makes chips more efficient, cutting AI model training costs and helping Anthropic's infrastructure meet surging demand, a person said. Decart was founded in 2023 by three Israeli engineers and raised $300 million in May at a valuation of nearly $4 billion. Its team would join Anthropic's inference and performance unit. Representatives for both firms declined to comment. The talks may still fall through, sources cautioned.
