Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:META) is reportedly negotiating a deal to rent AI data center capacity to Anthropic worth up to $10 billion over two years.

Anthropic pitched the arrangement in June, and both sides could exit early, with terms remaining fluid, The New York Times reported on Friday, citing sources familiar with the discussions.

Meta and Anthropic did not immediately respond to Benzinga‘s request for comment.

Anthropic’s web traffic share nearly doubled between March and June, separating it from smaller rivals and strengthening its negotiating position as it seeks more compute capacity to meet demand.
