The Pentagon’s May 2026 announcements of classified AI agreements with OpenAI, xAI, Google, Microsoft, Amazon, Nvidia and others—explicitly excluding Anthropic—reflect the central factor shaping trader sentiment. The exclusion stems from Anthropic’s refusal to drop safety restrictions on Claude’s use for autonomous weapons or domestic surveillance, prompting the Defense Department to designate the company a supply chain risk and triggering federal litigation. While President Trump noted in April that a resolution remains possible, the ongoing court battle and lack of any announced breakthrough keep near-term deal probabilities low. Competitive positioning favors labs that quickly accepted “any lawful use” terms, accelerating their integration into GenAI.mil platforms. Key upcoming catalysts include hearing dates in the Northern District of California case and any policy shifts ahead of the next major defense budget cycle.

This market will resolve to “Yes” if Anthropic and the United States Department of Defense (DOD/Department of War) reach any commercial agreement to allow for the use of Claude or other Anthropic artificial intelligence models by DOD employees by May 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to “No”.
A commercial agreement between Anthropic and a broader set of the US government that grants usage of Anthropic AI models to DOD employees will count. Agreements or designations which allow Anthropic to offer its services to the DOD, but do not constitute an effective agreement for Anthropic to do so, however, will not count (e.g the inclusion of Anthropic on a Master Service Agreement or Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity contract would not count).
An official announcement of a qualifying agreement, made within this market’s timeframe, will count, regardless of whether or when the agreement actually goes into effect.
Official announcements that the previously agreed contract between Anthropic and the DOD will be fully or partially reinstated, or otherwise will continue without impediment, will count, so long as this includes extended use of Anthropic AI models by DOD employees beyond any designated phase-out period.
Continued use of Anthropic technologies by DOD employees without a qualifying agreement (e.g. during a 6 month phase-out period) will not count. A court ruling that the designation of Anthropic as a supply chain risk is unlawful will not qualify for a “Yes” resolution unless it is accompanied by a reinstatement of Anthropic's DOD contract or a new qualifying Anthropic-DOD agreement.
The primary resolution sources for this market will be official information from Anthropic and the United States federal government; however, a consensus of credible reporting will also be used.
