Claude Mythos, Anthropic's newest model, is now accessible to enterprise customers through Google Cloud's Vertex AI platform - in private preview, meaning invitation-only access for now.
Vertex AI is Google Cloud's managed service for deploying AI models in business applications. Companies already running workloads on Google Cloud can access Claude Mythos through their existing account and billing relationship, rather than setting up a separate connection to Anthropic's API directly. That matters for procurement teams managing contracts and compliance requirements.
Private preview is a standard enterprise rollout pattern: selected customers get early access to test the model on real workloads before it opens more broadly. Businesses interested in access need to apply through Google Cloud.
The Anthropic-Google relationship has deepened significantly since Google invested heavily in Anthropic. Vertex AI has become one of the main channels for enterprise Claude access alongside Anthropic's own API and Amazon Web Services' Bedrock platform. Claude Mythos joining Vertex AI follows that established pattern of making new models available to cloud partners early.
No public benchmark data or pricing details were included in the Google Cloud announcement for the private preview period.
