Anthropic PBC is not pursuing an acquisition of AI startup Decart AI, according to people familiar with the matter reported by Bloomberg. The decision means the proposed $6 billion deal does not move forward.
Bloomberg says Anthropic has decided against the purchase after exploring the transaction and completing due diligence. The report also indicates the companies may still consider other forms of collaboration even though the acquisition is off the table. The Next Web, citing Bloomberg’s reporting, adds that Anthropic had worked on the deal and advanced through due diligence before choosing to walk away.
Across the outlets, the core point is consistent: Anthropic declines to buy Decart AI after discussions and diligence. The reporting does not provide detailed reasons for the decision, and both sources note that representatives declined to comment or offer additional specifics.
