Anthropic seeks 50.1% voting control for founders, The Information reports

Anthropic is proposing a special class of shares that would give its seven co-founders 50.1% of voting power on most corporate matters, contingent on at least three of them maintaining a minimum stake. The new shares carry no economic value; the founders’ board seats would increase from two to three, while the Long-Term Benefit Trust would still appoint most directors. The plan would end only if fewer than three founders hold the required stake.
