Claude
Claude is Anthropic’s AI assistant for work. Anthropic’s pitch is to hand Claude a task and not just a question: it can take tasks off your desk, turn ideas into something real and extend what you can do.
What Claude does
- Takes tasks off your desk: mine data, pull information together or make a first draft.
- Turns a half-formed idea into a polished deck, working prototype, financial model or draft you can edit.
- Runs in chat on the web, on iOS and Android, and in a desktop app.
- Anthropic’s plans page lists writing, editing and creating content, generating code and visualising data, searching the web, memory across conversations, and creating files and running code.
- Connects to other tools through connectors, including remote MCP, and Anthropic lists Slack and Google Workspace services.
What people use it for
Take a task off your desk
Hand it the data to mine, the information to pull together or the first draft to write, and spend your time on the decision.
Turn an idea into something you can edit
Bring a rough idea and get back a deck, prototype, financial model or draft that you can change and put your name on.
Use it in your own role
Anthropic’s page speaks to marketing, sales, finance, human resources, legal and product teams, with “Claude drafts, you decide” for legal.
Who it suits
- People in many roles who want to delegate a whole task, not only ask a question.
- Anyone who will read and decide on what it produces, which is how Anthropic frames the work.
Plans and access
Anthropic lists a free plan and paid plans for individuals, plus plans for Team and Enterprise. What each includes changes, so read Anthropic’s current plans before you decide.
