The company has announced the launch of the Services Track, a tiered structure that reflects what a firm has actually built and delivered with Claude, and the Claude Partner Hub, a portal that allows partners to see exactly where they stand against the program’s requirements, while helping customers find the firms most qualified for the scope of their project.

The launch builds on the company’s announcement of the Claude Partner Network in March, a program backed by a $100 million investment in partner training, technical support, and shared marketing for firms that help enterprises put Claude into production.

According to Anthropic, more than 40,000 firms have applied to join the Claude Partner Network since its launch in March, while more than 10,000 consultants have earned a Claude certification, which Anthropic describes as an individual credential that signals training in building and deploying Claude in production environments.

The largest professional-services firms in the world are building their own practices around Claude, putting it into production for clients while getting it into the hands of their own employees, Anthropic said. Accenture is training 30,000 professionals on the model.

Cognizant has rolled Claude out to roughly 350,000 associates. Deloitte is making it available to 470,000 people across its global network, according to the company.

Anthropic also said KPMG is integrating Claude across a workforce of more than 276,000. Infosys is building Claude-powered agents for specific industries, and PwC is rolling out Claude Code and Cowork starting with its US teams and expanding towards a global workforce in the hundreds of thousands.

The announcements come as AI companies increasingly rely on consulting and professional-services firms to help enterprises move AI projects from pilot programs into production deployments.

Anthropic’s partner strategy is aimed at expanding Claude’s reach inside large organizations through certified implementation partners.

According to Anthropic, every partner’s standing – their tier, certified team, customer deployments, and public references – is visible in the Hub’s public directory, so anyone evaluating partners can see what a firm has built and delivered.

Partners can also connect the Partner Hub to Claude through a new MCP connector, enabling them to access information about certifications, deal registrations and partnership status through conversations with Claude, the company said.

Anthropic said the program is designed to reward firms that build Claude deployment expertise and provide a predictable framework for partners planning long-term investments in their AI practices.
