Anthropic's AI Science Initiative

Anthropic's AI Science Initiative

5 May 2025

Anthropic has launched the 'AI for Science' programme, an initiative designed to accelerate scientific research by providing researchers with access to its API. The programme offers free API credits to support scientists working on high-impact projects, particularly those focused on biology and life sciences. Anthropic believes AI can significantly speed up scientific progress by helping researchers analyse complex data, generate hypotheses, design experiments, and communicate findings more effectively.

Qualified researchers can apply for API credits, with selection based on their contributions to science, the potential impact of their research, and AI's ability to accelerate their work. Anthropic is particularly interested in applications where AI can assist in understanding complex biological systems, analysing genetic data, accelerating drug discovery, increasing agricultural productivity, and addressing global disease burdens. Selected researchers may receive up to $20,000 per month in API usage credits.

This initiative aligns with Anthropic's vision of building AI systems that bring value to humanity. The programme aims to push the boundaries of scientific discovery and create a positive impact on the world.
