OpenAI&#8217;s employee equity stake is relatively well-documented: the company has already granted roughly $80 billion in vested equity to employees, and has set aside an additional $50 billion employee stock grant pool, meaning employee equity accounts for approximately 26% of the company, or roughly $260 billion at a $1 trillion valuation; for this report, we\u2019re applying broad tax assumptions and estimating employee equity is $135 billion, post-taxes.

Anthropic&#8217;s employee equity stake is not publicly disclosed, so we estimate it at 10%\u201315% of total shares\u2014 consistent with comparable late-stage tech IPOs\u2014implying a midpoint of roughly $120 billion in employee equity, or $63 billion post-taxes.

But when the companies go public, current and former employees\u2013and investors\u2013will earn much more money.\u00a0 While the calculations in this report are purely hypothetical and not a realistic representation of where IPO proceeds will go, they illustrate the huge scale of wealth being created in the Bay Area.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>SpaceX Employees Could Buy Half of San Antonio With Their IPO Earnings<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">SpaceX employees could hypothetically pool their IPO windfall to buy <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/news\/spacex-ipo-housing-wealth\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">roughly 40%<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> of all the homes in San Antonio, one of the closest major metros to the company&#8217;s Starbase, TX headquarters, according to a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/news\/spacex-ipo-housing-wealth\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">separate Redfin report<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. The total value of all homes in San Antonio was roughly $297 billion in 2024; we estimate SpaceX employees hold roughly $200 billion in equity at the midpoint of our 10\u201315% ownership estimate, which comes to $120 billion post-taxes.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Methodology<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">OpenAI and Anthropic valuations are drawn from company announcements, SEC filings, and reporting from the Wall Street Journal, Reuters, and Fortune.

This is a reported figure, not a model. After applying estimated income taxes, we estimate OpenAI employees would net a total of approximately $135 billion in after-tax proceeds. That is a broad figure, as taxes depend on state, stock type and many other factors.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Anthropic&#8217;s employee equity estimate of ~$120 billion (10\u201315% midpoint) is modeled by subtracting known large stakeholders\u2014Amazon (~15\u201317%), Google (~14%), and other institutional investors\u2014from the total valuation and applying typical employee equity ranges from comparable late-stage tech IPOs. After applying estimated income taxes, we estimate Anthropic employees would net a total of approximately $63 billion in after-tax proceeds. That is a broad figure, as taxes depend on state, stock type and many other factors.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Total housing market values for the San Francisco, San Jose, and Oakland metro areas are from a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/news\/housing-market-value-december-2024\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Redfin report<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> on U.S. housing market values as of December 2024.
