The Core Development

Anthropic and PwC today announced an expansion of their strategic alliance, deepening how PwC uses Claude to build technology, execute deals, and reinvent enterprise functions for clients across every industry it serves. Most enterprises are still running on systems and processes built for a pre-AI world—a drag that is estimated to be more than $2 trillion. Together, Anthropic and PwC are helping companies replace that weight and rebuild around AI.

"PwC has been leading AI's expansion into the parts of the economy where accuracy and reliability are non-negotiable—financial services, healthcare, life sciences, cybersecurity—and the results are clear. Insurance underwriting that took 10 weeks now takes 10 days. Security work that took hours now takes minutes. We're excited to put Claude in the hands of hundreds of thousands of people across PwC's workforce," said Dario Amodei, Co-founder and CEO, Anthropic.

"The conversation around AI has shifted from possibility to execution. Clients are looking for ways to apply AI that are secure, responsible, and capable of delivering measurable outcomes in complex business environments. Our collaboration with Anthropic brings together advanced AI capabilities and PwC's industry experience to help organizations move from exploration to enterprise-wide impact with greater confidence," said Paul Griggs, US Senior Partner and CEO, PwC.

How It Works & Technical Architecture

Claude is the only frontier model available on all three of the world's most prominent cloud services, including Amazon Bedrock, Google Cloud Vertex AI, and Microsoft Azure.

Strategic Perspective & Ecosystem Impact

The biggest gains for enterprises will come from AI systems that complete tasks end-to-end, run continuously, and let the most experienced professionals operate at a scale not previously possible. PwC and Anthropic are building them in production today, across PwC's global network. The expansion centers on three areas:

PwC is launching a new business group focused on transforming client finance organizations with Claude. The practice will pair PwC's finance expertise with Anthropic's full product set: Claude, Claude Cowork, and Claude Code. It's starting with regulated industries—banking, insurance, healthcare—where accuracy and auditability matter most. Engagements range from targeted help with specific finance tasks to top-to-bottom redesigns of the whole function.

PwC started as "Customer Zero," putting Claude to work inside its own firm before bringing it to clients. Teams used it for journal entries, variance analysis, and RFPs, and built on Claude Code to optimize annual planning. In parallel, PwC has been helping Anthropic's own CFO office scale operations, controls, and international payroll. Both firms put the technology to work inside their own walls before bringing it to clients.

Why it matters

The partnership demonstrates a large consulting firm’s commitment to scaling AI tools in regulated sectors, potentially accelerating AI adoption and reducing legacy system costs across industries.
