According to Beating, Anthropic is negotiating to purchase inference chips from London-based startup Fractile, which is seeking over $100 million in funding at a valuation exceeding $1 billion. Fractile, founded in late 2022, uses SRAM-based architecture to reduce inference power consumption and costs compared to GPU-dependent approaches. The potential order has become a key selling point for Fractile’s current funding round, with investors including Founders Fund, 8VC, and Accel. Anthropic is diversifying its chip supply strategy, having committed $300 billion to Microsoft Azure for Nvidia servers and recently agreeing to purchase Google’s custom chips for use outside Google Cloud.
