## In short

KPMG signed a global alliance with Anthropic, embedding Claude Cowork and Managed Agents into its Azure-based Digital Gateway platform and giving its 276,000-strong workforce across 138 countries access to Claude.

## What it is

KPMG is one of the Big Four professional services firms, covering audit, tax, and advisory work. This alliance makes Anthropic's Claude a standard tool inside KPMG, both for its own staff and inside the platform it sells to clients. It follows a similar expanded alliance Anthropic announced with PwC.

## How it works

Claude Cowork and Managed Agents are embedded directly into KPMG Digital Gateway, the firm's client-delivery platform built on Microsoft Azure that combines tax insights, proprietary tools, and client data in one environment. Staff and clients build agentic workflows inside the platform itself. A separate offering, KPMG Blaze, embeds Claude Code to help private equity portfolio companies modernize legacy IT systems.

## Why it matters

It puts Claude in front of 276,000 professionals and their clients, with an initial focus on tax and private equity work. KPMG in the US becomes a preferred consultant for deploying Anthropic's models to PE clients, and the firms cite cybersecurity vulnerability identification and remediation among the early use cases.
