Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) has announced a global partnership with Anthropic to help customers accelerate enterprise artificial intelligence (AI) adoption. Under the collaboration, TCS will establish a dedicated business unit focused on developing joint industry solutions and building AI expertise around Anthropic’s Claude family of models through early access.

Additionally, TCS will deploy Claude across 50,000 of its associates in engineering, finance, legal, marketing and sales functions through enterprise-wide licensing, the company said in a regulatory filing.

Anthropic co-founder and chief executive said the partnership deepens the company’s commitment to India, which is its second-largest market globally.

Meanwhile, TCS chief executive and managing director said the collaboration will help customers move faster from pilot to production, particularly in industries where trust, resilience and regulatory discipline are critical.
