Anthropic's S-1 shows more than half the Fortune 500 paying it at least $100,000 a year, yet those companies still spend under $1 with Anthropic for every $1,000 in total expenses.

The common story is whether AI is a bubble, but the real question is whether today's AI budgets define the size of this market.
