Anthropic launched Transparency Hub on February 27, 2025, publishing first reports on banned accounts, appeals, and government requests
On February 27, 2025, Anthropic launched its Transparency Hub (transparency.anthropic.com) providing 'a detailed overview of concrete measures we're implementing to ensure our systems are safe, beneficial, and trustworthy.' The first periodic report published several key transparency metrics: banned accounts, account appeals, appeal overturns, reports to NCMEC (National Center for Missing and Exploited Children), and government request data. The Hub centralizes information about model development processes, capability and safety evaluations, and platform detection and enforcement metrics. Anthropic implemented appeals mechanism for banned users and committed to processing government data requests 'in accordance with applicable laws while protecting user privacy.' The OECD noted this represented a 'practical approach to transparency' in April 2025. However, by October 2025, reporting noted Anthropic had 'quietly removed several voluntary AI safety commitments made during the Biden administration' from the Hub.
