More than 95 investors have put money into both Anthropic and OpenAI, according to PitchBook data cited in a New York Times report by Erin Griffith and summarized by Techmeme. The report points to a notable overlap in the cap tables of two of the most closely watched artificial intelligence companies. Techmeme’s summary says the New York Times described the pattern as occurring amid shifting norms for AI investing. The same summary says sources told the New York Times that Menlo Ventures, Lightspeed and Iconiq each hold 1%–2% stakes in Anthropic. The provided item does not include comparable stake sizes for those firms in OpenAI, nor does it detail the structure, timing or terms of the investments. That makes this a developing capital-markets story rather than a fully stood-up map of AI ownership. The available evidence supports the core point: investor overlap between OpenAI and Anthropic is broader than a handful of marquee venture firms, according to PitchBook and the New York Times summary. It does not yet support stronger claims about control, conflicts, governance rights or strategic coordination. Who benefits: Investors with access to both companies gain diversified exposure to two leading AI labs. Anthropic and OpenAI may also benefit from deep pools of capital competing for limited allocation. Who's exposed: The main exposure is informational and governance-related, but the provided source does not establish any specific conflict or consequence. Readers should not infer control rights or board influence from the stake figures alone.
