Ode with Anthropic Acquires Casper Studios to Help Businesses Get the Most Value Out of AI

Acquisition brings together Ode's custom AI engineering with Casper Studios' experience implementing Anthropic products across organizations

SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Today, Ode with Anthropic, an enterprise AI transformation company, announced it has acquired Casper Studios (Casper). Casper is an AI services firm that helps companies put Claude to work inside the systems their teams already use.

Ode is building a market-leading business that helps enterprises move from AI experimentation to company-wide transformation. Ode solves their clients’ most complex and transformative AI challenges with custom-engineered solutions, work that remains core to the firm's business. But alongside their clients’ most ambitious AI initiatives sit thousands of other high-impact opportunities. This is where Casper thrives, building the skills, connectors, and context within Anthropic products that drive AI impact across an organization.

“CEOs have a long tail of AI engineering needs, and require a partner who can help them fully realize what frontier AI can do to accelerate their business,” said Chris Taylor, CEO of Ode with Anthropic. “After collaborating with Jay's team on multiple engagements, we recognized a shared DNA and a commitment to overdelivering for the client. We’re thrilled to have them under the Ode umbrella.”

“We built our company to help organizations adopt AI quickly, effectively, and in a way that establishes real trust. We found common cause with Ode,” said Jay Singh, CEO and co-founder of Casper Studios. “We know we’ll be able to do even more for our clients working with their excellent and deeply technical team.”

Sphera, an operational intelligence platform that unifies risk, safety, and sustainability insights, was a recent shared client. Using Anthropic’s models, Ode built a custom internal tool for a key component of Sphera’s business that reduced bottlenecks from time-intensive operational tasks by 70%. At the same time, Casper was able to automate many cumbersome processes that slowed work across Sphera's customer support, consulting, and project planning teams. Both Ode and Casper built solutions in the same Claude Code setup, so tools one team wrote, the other could pick up and use instantly.

“We’ve watched these two teams work together in action, embedding AI across the full arc of an enterprise, at the agent level, the product level, and well beyond. Very few firms can take a company from one hard custom build to AI running throughout the business, and that is exactly what this combination does,” said Rodney Zemmel, an Ode Board Member and Global Head of the Blackstone Operating Team.
