Guillaume Princen, Global Head of Start-ups and Head of Europe, Middle East, and Africa (EMEA) at Anthropic, has revealed that half of the usage of their AI tool, Claude, in India is for technical purposes. These tasks include user interface (UI) design, code debugging, and software development. This percentage is notably higher compared to the global average, where only 30% of Claude’s usage involves such technical applications.
**India: Anthropic’s Second Largest Market**
India, home to the world’s fourth-largest developer community, stands as Anthropic’s second largest market after the United States. Princen highlighted that approximately 33% of all Claude conversations globally occur in India, underscoring the scale and reach of their services within the country.
**Plans for Expansion in Bengaluru**
To strengthen its presence in India, Anthropic plans to open an office in Bengaluru by the first quarter of 2026. The new office aims to expedite the launch of key offerings tailored to one of Anthropic’s largest markets.
Princen said, “You’ll see more of us because we really want to have a local presence.” He added that the company intends to be closer to its users and will be building teams focused on community support across the board.
This expansion reflects Anthropic’s commitment to growing its footprint in India’s vibrant tech ecosystem and enhancing user engagement with Claude’s AI capabilities.
