Anthropic has partnered with Indian IT services giant Tata Consultancy Services in a bid to accelerate adoption of its artificial intelligence models at enterprises.
The partnership will see TCS creating a business unit focused on deploying Anthropic’s AI models to its customers. TCS will also gain early access to new model releases, which it says it will use to build expertise, and it will provide Anthropic’s Claude AI assistant to its employee base of more than 50,000 people.
The companies said they would develop solutions for sectors like financial services, healthcare, telecommunications and aviation.
Frontier AI companies have been securing enterprise distribution channels by partnering with firms like TCS in India. Earlier this year, Anthropic teamed up with Infosys, and OpenAI roped in Infosys and HCLTech to do something similar.
Beyond enterprise deployments, the partnership extends to several TCS businesses and platforms. Diligenta, TCS’s UK-based life and pensions business with over 22 million customers, plans to use Claude for customer service and process automation. Similarly, TCS iON, the company’s digital learning platform, will offer training and certification programs on Anthropic’s models.
TCS said it would contribute capabilities to Anthropic’s Claude Code ecosystem, including tools for claims adjudication and lending advisory.
Anthropic has been working to expand its footprint in India, which the company has described as its second-largest market. Over the past year, the startup has opened an office in the country, hired for leadership roles, and expanded ties with major IT services firms.
