We’re committing a portion of Anthropic’s shares to the Anthropic Public Benefit Fund, a new wholly owned entity dedicated entirely to the public benefit.
It will start off with 5% of our shares. For every 50% increase in the company’s value over a set baseline, we can contribute up to an extra 2%, subject to our board’s discretion.
In total, this means that roughly 20% of Anthropic’s shares are committed to the public good. Our co-founders have already pledged to donate 80% of their equity, and around half our employees are donating a portion of their equity as part of a donation matching program we’ve run since our founding.
In the post below, we share more details about our new fund.

Call it what it is: lock-in. A connector built for Muse only works inside Muse. No other agent can touch it. This is App Store-era bullshit that should not exist anymore. Build on MCP and one connector works everywhere. Open always wins
Custom connectors are a good step. Now make them portable. If I build a connector, it should work with every agent I use, not just one company's bot. That's what MCP is for. Open beats walled garden
What shipped today:
src/exemplar/adapters/typesafe.py, a new operator-registered reference adapter with two operations:
•typesafe.judge - ask Jev any typed questions over state, get the probabilities back untouched.
• typesafe.verdict - the decision layer. Claim plus evidence in, deterministic verdict out: proceed, hold, or insufficient_evidence. It asks Jev three calibrated questions (does evidence support the claim, does anything contradict it, what's the verdict), then derives the verdict in pure code under an operator-configurable policy. Every output records the full probability distribution, the policy applied, and the reason, so any verdict is auditable. @typesafeai
4 labs shipped new models in one week and nobody can keep up. Meanwhile nobody's testing the agents built on them. Exemplar: 4 packs that grade your agents like a strict QA lead. Free test: zaydreamer5.gumroad.com/l/ex…
