SpaceX doubled its revenues following growth in its Starlink satellite business and compute deals with artificial intelligence company Anthropic and Google. TechCrunch originally reported the financial expansion on August 4, 2026. The Verge independently reported the revenue increase.

The publication did not state the exact dollar value of the revenues or provide specific financial totals for SpaceX. Anthropic did not disclose the financial terms, duration, or infrastructure details of its compute agreement. Google gave no details regarding the scale or cost of its compute arrangement with SpaceX.
