The company builds data centres for AI workloads and counts Nvidia among its backers.

Active and contracted total contract value reached $103.4 billion as of 31 August 2026, up from $38.0 billion at the end of 2025.

Revenue for the first half of this year was $140.6 million, growth of more than 1,250% according to CNBC. Over the same six months, the net loss was $1.02 billion.

Last month Anthropic signed an infrastructure deal with Nscale worth about $44.6 billion. It is buying roughly 460 megawatts at a West Virginia campus called Monarch, which runs on its own microgrid.

Nscale was valued at $14.6 billion in March. Sources told Bloomberg it is seeking up to $3 billion from the offering.
