Anthropic Joins Palantir’s FedStart Program to Deploy Claude Application

By: via Business Wire

Palantir Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ: PLTR) today announced that Anthropic will leverage Palantir’s FedStart offering to make Anthropic’s Claude application available to the government sector at FedRAMP High and DoD Impact Level 5 (IL5) security standards. Anthropic’s Claude for Enterprise offering is specifically designed for organizations that are looking for a secure AI solution that scales across cross-functional teams in support of deep work.

Palantir FedStart is a SaaS offering that helps accelerate federal go-to-market strategies by enabling companies to run their products within Palantir's Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP) and Impact Level (IL) accredited environment. FedStart provides a seamless pathway for companies to achieve compliance and scale their operations within the government sector. Through FedStart, Anthropic will be able to start offering Claude in the coming months to millions of federal government employees, enabling them to utilize Claude to enhance their efficiency in writing, analyzing data, and solving complex problems.

Anthropic’s Claude application will be hosted on Google Cloud. This deployment leverages a multi-cloud strategy with an ability to use multiple cloud inference services like Amazon Bedrock and Google Cloud’s Vertex AI. Palantir’s FedStart enables Anthropic to offer the government access to cutting-edge, accredited solutions across multiple cloud platforms for enhanced operational flexibility while maintaining the highest security and compliance standards.

“We are excited to support the collaboration between Palantir and Anthropic, leveraging Google Cloud’s FedRAMP High and Impact Level 5 (IL5) accredited commercial cloud infrastructure to deliver a highly scalable and secure environment for the Claude application,” said Karen Dahut, CEO of Google Public Sector. “We look forward to ensuring that the federal government has access to cutting-edge AI solutions on an enterprise-grade cloud infrastructure without delay.”

“Palantir’s FedStart offering will help bring Claude to the U.S. public sector, where we have seen significant interest from government agencies eager to use our products,” said Thiyagu Ramasamy, Head of Public Sector at Anthropic. “FedStart will allow Claude to comply with FedRAMP High and DoD Impact Level 5. With accreditation through FedStart, the federal civilian and defense workforce will be able to experience parity with the commercial experience of using Claude to ideate, collaborate, and build.”

“We built FedStart to accelerate the government’s ability to leverage the best, most innovative technologies as they emerge. By enabling the federal workforce to take advantage of Claude while ensuring strict adherence to the compliance and security requirements for processing U.S. government (USG) data, we are excited to help increase productivity and efficacy across government,” said Akash Jain, President of Palantir U.S. Government. “Anthropic builds some of the world’s leading AI applications, and we’re thrilled that our FedStart program can support Anthropic’s accreditation journey.”

Last year, Anthropic announced it partners with Palantir, through Palantir’s AI Platform (AIP), facilitated through Amazon Web Services’s SageMaker and Bedrock, to host Anthropic’s models on Palantir's Impact Level 6 (IL6) accredited environment, which requires some of the strictest policy protocols.
