Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei earned $18 million in 2025, mostly from stock and options, according to compensation figures revealed in the artificial intelligence company's initial public offering filing.

Anthropic Chief Executive Dario Amodei earned $18 million in 2025, with the vast majority coming from stock and options, according to the company's IPO filing reported by Reuters. The prospectus also disclosed that his sister, Anthropic President Daniela Amodei, earned $16.4 million in 2025, while his base salary was increased to $1.4 million in July.[2][4][6][7]
The earnings place Amodei in the middle ranks of technology chief executives, according to Reuters, while Quartz reported that the figure is below the S&P 500 CEO average and a fraction of what some peers took home. Quartz noted the package is considered modest for an executive heading a business aiming for a valuation above $2 trillion.[1][2][3][5]
