Anthropic acquires Stainless — SDK provider used by OpenAI and Google

Friends, sharing an AI update: Anthropic has acquired Stainless — a startup that automated generation and maintenance of SDKs, used by major AI labs.

- Deal not disclosed; earlier reports mentioned talks above $300M.
- Anthropic will discontinue hosting Stainless products, but clients retain generated SDKs and rights.
- The technology streamlines synchronized SDK updates when APIs change and is valuable for integrating agents with external software.

Why it matters: a key infrastructure tool will be predominantly controlled by Anthropic, shifting the balance among market leaders.

How will this affect your API integrations?
