Notes

Edge delivery network turned distributed cloud operator, and from 2026 an AI compute supplier. On 2026-09-24 it disclosed a Master Services Agreement with Anthropic carrying $11.6B of contractual commitment over seven years for dedicated cloud capacity and managed support - aimed at Anthropic's accelerating CPU workloads rather than GPU training, which is the part of the frontier-lab compute bill the neoclouds do not serve. The contract can expand by a further $9B to roughly $20B, and Akamai issued Anthropic a warrant for non-voting convertible Series B preferred representing 7.7 million common shares - up to 5% of the company - at an exercise price of $111.33, with about 2% expected to vest under the initial commitment. Akamai expects about $5.5B of capital expenditure against the $11.6B, and its shares rose as much as 20% after hours on the news.
