Indian IT giant Infosys said on Tuesday it has partnered with Anthropic to develop enterprise-grade AI agents, as automation driven by large language models reshapes the global IT services industry.<\/p>\n
Under the partnership, Infosys plans to integrate Anthropic\u2019s Claude models into its Topaz AI platform to build so-called \u201cagentic\u201d systems. The companies claim these agents will be able to autonomously handle complex enterprise workflows across industries such as banking, telecoms, and manufacturing. The tie-up was announced at India\u2019s AI Impact Summit<\/a> in New Delhi this week, which will see top executives from AI companies and Big Tech alike in attendance.<\/p>\n The deal comes amid fears that AI tools, especially those built by major AI labs like Anthropic and OpenAI, will disrupt India\u2019s heavily-staffed, $280 billion IT services industry<\/a>, raising questions about the future of labor-intensive outsourcing business models. Earlier this month, shares of Indian IT companies went into freefall<\/a> after Anthropic launched a suite of enterprise AI tools that claimed to automate tasks across legal, sales, marketing, and research roles.<\/p>\n The partnership would give Infosys, one of the world\u2019s largest IT services businesses, access to Anthropic\u2019s Claude models, and developer tools for building AI agents tailored for large enterprises. Infosys said it would use Anthropic\u2019s Claude Code to help write, test, and debug code, and said it is already deploying the tool internally to build expertise that will be applied to client work.<\/p>\n Infosys also detailed how AI is contributing to its business: AI-related services generated revenue of \u20b925 billion (around $275 million), or 5.5% of the company\u2019s total revenue of \u20b9454.8 billion (about $5 billion) in the December quarter. Rival Tata Consultancy Services previously said its AI services generate about $1.8 billion annually, or around 6% of revenue.<\/p>\n For Anthropic, the partnership offers a route into heavily regulated enterprise sectors where deploying AI systems at scale requires industry expertise and governance capabilities.<\/p>\n \u201cThere\u2019s a big gap between an AI model that works in a demo and one that works in a regulated industry,\u201d said Anthropic co-founder and CEO Dario Amodei. Infosys\u2019 experience in sectors such as financial services, telecoms, and manufacturing helps bridge that gap, he said.<\/p>\n Techcrunch event<\/p>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tBoston, MA Anthropic this week also opened its first India office in Bengaluru<\/a>, as it seeks to expand further into the country, which has grown into the company\u2019s second-largest market. Anthropic said India now accounts<\/a> for about 6% of global Claude usage, second only to the U.S., and much of that activity is concentrated in programming.<\/p>\n Infosys did not disclose the timeline for deploying Claude-powered AI agents or the financial terms of the deal.<\/p>\n
