Anthropic announced that Claude is now available for purchase through the General Services Administration (GSA) schedule, enabling all U.S. federal government departments and agencies to access the AI system with pre-negotiated pricing and terms that comply with federal acquisition regulations.
The GSA schedule availability simplifies procurement processes for government organisations seeking to integrate AI capabilities while meeting federal security and compliance requirements. Anthropic stated that its commitment to responsible AI deployment, including rigorous safety testing, collaborative governance development, and strict usage policies, positions Claude for public sector and national security applications.
The company indicated it will continue working with government partners to expand Claude access for federal teams through streamlined procurement processes and unique pricing arrangements. Anthropic emphasised that AI deployment across federal agencies enhances productivity, streamlines operations, and enables more effective and responsive government services.
Anthropic has established multiple government partnerships, including collaborations with national laboratories for scientific research and integration into defense and intelligence workflows through technology partners. The company has developed custom Claude Gov models designed specifically for national security applications.
Organisations interested in implementing Claude can contact Anthropic's public sector team for additional information and implementation guidance. The partnership with GSA represents part of Anthropic's broader strategy to help government organisations harness AI capabilities to modernize operations.
Federal agencies can now access Claude through established government procurement channels with compliant pricing structures. The GSA schedule eliminates traditional procurement barriers while maintaining federal security and compliance standards for AI implementation.
The GSA schedule availability positions Claude for widespread federal adoption through simplified acquisition processes. Government organisations can leverage pre-negotiated terms to accelerate AI deployment timelines while ensuring regulatory compliance and security requirements are met.
