Brief

Author @cryptopunk7213 warns that recent moves (reported 2026-05-11) by Anthropic and OpenAI to embed thousands of engineers across 2,000+ large firms replicate Palantir’s playbook: hook companies on their AI (ChatGPT/Claude), capture a services market the author values at ~$375 billion, and cement long-term customer dependency via OpenAI’s new Deployment Company and a 17.5% investor return guarantee.

Why it matters

Author @cryptopunk7213 claims that in the last 5 days (post dated 2026-05-11) both Anthropic and OpenAI committed to deploying thousands of engineers into 2,000+ of the world’s biggest companies to embed their models and supplant traditional consulting firms.

Key details

  • The post frames this as a 'Palantir playbook'—embed engineers to lock customers—and cites that companies spend ~$6 on services for every $1 on software, putting the target services market at ~$375 billion; it also notes OpenAI launched the majority-owned OpenAI Deployment Company with 19 investment firms/consultancies and is guaranteeing a 17.5% return to investing firms.
Source evidence

ok this is a much bigger announcement than people realize

in the last 5 days BOTH anthropic and openai have committed to deploying 1000s of engineers into 2000+ of the biggest companies in the world (bye bye consulting firms) but theres another story...

this is the palantir playbook which saw its stock triple:

> embed your engineers in different companies.
> get them hooked on your product (aka chatgPT, claude)
> congrats you now have a customer for life thats dependent on you forever.

for every $1 companies spend on software they spend around $6 on services

anthropic and OAI are going after this market and its worth ~$375 billion lol

Openai is so confident they're guaranteeing a 17.5% return to the firms investing in this with them.

this is how anthropic and openai are going to keep growing revenue to insane multiples.

follow the money
