Anthropic announced on October 8 that it will commit $150 million over three years to the Genesis Mission, a federal initiative to accelerate scientific and technological discovery through AI. The funding will provide Claude, Claude Code, API credits and technical support to several hundred research projects across more than 15 agencies, including NASA, the National Institutes of Health and the National Science Foundation.

The announcement was made at the Science: A New Golden Age Summit, hosted by the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy. Anthropic said it will partner closely with agencies and national laboratories on priorities including fusion energy and quantum computing, and will help onboard agencies that are new to the mission.

The company did not disclose how the $150 million splits between credits, staffing and other services, so the headline figure does not say exactly how much computing capacity researchers will receive. Still, it is one of the largest AI-industry commitments to federal science to date, coming days after Anthropic expanded its Cyber Verification Program for vetted security teams.
