Anthropic expands GSA partnership with 40% Claude discount for government agencies

Anthropic expanded its partnership with the General Services Administration through a new agreement giving government partners a 40% discount on Claude Enterprise, Claude for Government and the Claude API, extended for the first time across every product surface and to state, local, tribal and territorial governments. Anthropic estimates the discounts will save the government $1 billion, with no minimum spend commitment, and is launching a dedicated program to help agencies implement Claude. About 500 US federal, state and local government organizations now use Claude, and weekly Claude for Government active users are up about eightfold since February.
