Anthropic said the company’s basic software offering already has some traction in sectors like finance and hospitality across Europe. Now, it’s looking to build on that. Chief Executive Officer Dario Amodei said the startup’s cloud-computing partners — Amazon.com Inc. and Alphabet Inc.’s Google — will help it meet the tighter restrictions on data usage for businesses operating in the European Union.
