Anthropic today announced that it’s teaming up with Palantir, the data-mining company, and Amazon Web Services to provide U.S. intelligence and defense agencies access to Anthropic’s Claude 3 and 3.5 family of AI models.

The news comes as a growing number of AI vendors, for strategic and revenue-related reasons, look to ink deals with U.S. defense customers. Meta recently revealed that it’s making its Llama family of models available to defense partners, while OpenAI, through its the government contractor Carahsoft, is seeking to establish a closer relationship with the U.S. Department of Defense.

Anthropic head of sales Kate Earle Jensen says that the company’s partnership with Palantir and AWS will allow for an “integrated suite of technology” to “operationalize the use of Claude” within Palantir’s platform while leveraging AWS’ flexibility.

“We’re proud to be at the forefront of bringing responsible AI solutions to U.S. classified environments, enhancing analytical capabilities and operational efficiencies in vital government operations,” Jensen said. “Access to Claude 3 and Claude 3.5 within Palantir on AWS will equip U.S. defense and intelligence organizations with powerful AI tools that can rapidly process and analyze vast amounts of complex data. This will dramatically improve intelligence analysis and enable officials in their decision-making processes, streamline resource intensive tasks and boost operational efficiency across departments.”
