Anthropic announced a $150 million commitment over three years to the Genesis Mission, a federal initiative that uses AI to accelerate scientific and technological discovery. The company says the funding will make Claude available to more than 15 participating agencies, including NASA, the National Institutes of Health and the National Science Foundation.

The commitment includes Claude, Claude Code and API credits for several hundred research projects, plus training, onboarding and technical support. Anthropic also plans to work with agencies and national laboratories on fusion energy and quantum computing. The support is to be delivered over the next three years.
