United States-based SpaceX has signed multi-year artificial intelligence infrastructure agreements with Anthropic and Google, collectively valued at about $26 billion annually, significantly expanding the company’s role beyond its core aerospace launch and Starlink satellite services. Under the terms of the deal, Google is scheduled to pay SpaceX roughly $920 million per month from October 2026 through June 2029 in exchange for exclusive and priority access to SpaceX’s specialized computing resources and supporting infrastructure. The contracts position SpaceX as a major provider of AI-focused hardware and computing capacity to large technology customers seeking to scale their artificial intelligence capabilities. United States regulators and investors are closely watching as the agreements coincide with SpaceX’s preparation for a potential public offering, adding a substantial new revenue stream to its existing business lines. The arrangement calls for the deployment of about 110,000 Nvidia graphics processing units and associated hardware to sustain the high-intensity computing operations required for Google’s AI initiatives, including the expansion of its Gemini Enterprise product suite. The deals highlight rising demand across the technology sector for access to large-scale AI infrastructure and underscore growing competition among major firms to lock in long-term computing power for training and deploying advanced models.
