Anthropic will make its Claude AI models available with in-country inference in India through Amazon Bedrock, Amazon Web Services' managed generative AI platform, in the coming weeks. The expansion targets enterprises and government entities that require data to be processed locally.
The move responds to growing demand from Indian organisations for local access to the models. With in-country inference, AI prompts and responses are processed within India, letting organisations keep workloads and data inside the country. For banks, insurers, and public sector agencies, that control often separates evaluating AI from deploying it.
India is one of the largest markets for Claude, the company said in a statement, with a developer community doing some of the most technically complex AI work Anthropic sees anywhere.
"Bringing Claude inference to India is a turning point for enterprise AI in this country," said Irina Ghose, managing director for India at Anthropic. "India's banks, insurers, telecommunications companies, and public-sector agencies steward the data of a billion people. When that data can stay in India, AI moves from pilots into the systems that matter most."
Claude deployments through Amazon Bedrock carry the audit trails and access controls that risk and compliance teams require before production. Sandeep Dutta, president of AWS India and South Asia, said Indian institutions are at an inflection point in their AI journey and ready to use frontier AI at scale. "With Anthropic's Claude now available for in-country inference through Amazon Bedrock, they can deploy it on the same trusted infrastructure they already use for their most critical workloads," Dutta said.
Anthropic has been expanding its India presence since opening its Bengaluru office in February. Large enterprises deploying Claude across their organisations include Axis Bank, National Payments Corporation of India, IndusInd Bank, and Godrej Industries. The company said it is building a growing local team with strong performance in Indian languages.
The in-country inference launch follows Anthropic's broader push into regulated markets where data residency is a precondition for adoption. For Indian financial institutions already running on AWS, the change removes a compliance barrier that had kept Claude in pilot phases rather than production systems.
Anthropic did not specify a precise activation date for the service, saying only that availability would roll out in the coming weeks.
