Anthropic is evaluating its own internal payment and billing system to reduce reliance on third-party services like Stripe and enhance control over pricing, usage measurement, bill generation, and financial reconciliation. The company’s billing platform team is conducting a “build or buy” assessment and is simultaneously recruiting experienced engineers and project managers in areas such as pricing, payments, contract rights, revenue tracking, and risk management. Its Q2 2026 revenue reached $11.5 billion, an increase of over 14 times compared to the previous year, and complex commercialization needs have driven the upgrade of this strategy.
