We recently submitted a confidential S-1. We expect it to leak so we’re just announcing it. We have not decided on timing yet; it may be a while because there are things we want to do that are likely easier as a private company. But it’s a complicated set of tradeoffs and this gives us the option to go public sooner if that ends up being best.

This announcement is being made pursuant to Rule 135 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities. Any offers, solicitations of offers to buy, or any sales of securities will be made in accordance with the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

BREAKING: WSJ reports OpenAI just made its first formal move toward IPO.

it has confidentially filed draft paperwork for an IPO.

A confidential S-1 lets OpenAI start SEC review without immediately exposing revenue, losses, customer mix, compute costs, or executive pay, so the company can prepare for a listing while still keeping sensitive numbers private.

Last week Anthropic has already filed its own confidential IPO paperwork, so this is no longer only a model race, but a capital race between labs trying to finance the next generation of AI infrastructure.
