With new interactive connectors, collaborative whiteboards, and robust enterprise controls, the AI that revolutionized coding is now bringing the magic of seamless creation to every team.
- Seamless App Integration: Upgraded interactive connectors allow you to open and work within full versions of tools like Adobe, Atlassian, and Box directly inside Claude—eliminating the need to constantly switch tabs.
- Expanded Collaborative Artifacts: The introduction of Claude Sheets, Claude Whiteboards, and Claude Data turns conversations into tangible, shared workspaces where your team can organize data, brainstorm, and visualize analytics together.
- Enterprise-Grade Security & Control: Advanced administration features, including a new Auto-connect setup, granular app permissions, and isolated virtual machines, ensure that scaling AI across your organization is both highly efficient and fiercely protected.
We have already witnessed how AI can fundamentally alter the landscape of software engineering. With the introduction of Claude Code, developers transitioned from manually typing line by line to conceptualizing ideas and letting AI do the heavy lifting. It reignited the joy of building. Now, Anthropic’s goal is to bring that exact same magic to every professional, regardless of their technical background.
Rolling out across web and desktop, Claude is expanding far beyond a conversational assistant. It is evolving into a centralized, highly connected operating system for modern work. By introducing new, dynamic artifact types and upgrading how Claude integrates with your most-used enterprise applications, the barriers between your ideas and your final deliverables are disappearing.
The End of Tab-Switching: Interactive Connectors
For developers, the context required to do great work is usually neatly contained within a codebase. For everyone else,context is a chaotic sprawl across emails, cloud drives, and specialized software. Claude bridges this gap using the Model Context Protocol (MCP), an open standard designed to connect AI to your daily tools. While the Claude Marketplace already boasts over 9,000 plugins and connectors—including many built by the community—the newest update takes this integration to a whole new level.
With the launch of interactive connectors, partners can now embed their applications directly into the Claude interface.You can open the full version of a tool and work in Adobe, Atlassian, and Box right beside your conversation. You can make changes yourself, or ask Claude to execute them with you.
Furthermore, specialized plugins from platforms like Salesforce (beta), NetSuite, and Workday (beta) now come equipped with built-in skills. This allows sales professionals to effortlessly prep for client calls, accountants to rapidly analyze financial data, and HR teams to handle time-off requests and expense reports—all without ever leaving their Claude workspace.
Bringing Ideas to Life, Together
To complement these integrations, Claude is expanding its wildly popular Artifacts feature. Historically used for documents, slide decks, and designs—as well as turning content into short animations with Claude Motion (beta)—the ecosystem is growing to encompass how cross-functional teams naturally collaborate:
- Claude Sheets: Say goodbye to isolated data. Your team and Claude can now build spreadsheets together,collaboratively organizing information, creating and editing complex formulas, and working seamlessly across multiple tabs.
- Claude Whiteboards: Brainstorming gets a digital upgrade. Teams can use this spatial interface to lay out and organize ideas during a meeting, and immediately ask Claude to summarize the findings and extract action items.
- Claude Data: Formerly known as Dashboards, this tool connects directly to platforms like Snowflake and Salesforce. Using definitions certified by your data team (currently in beta), Claude Data can generate comprehensive dashboards, visual data stories, and even narrated short videos to present your metrics.
Because Claude carries your context through every step of a project, a concept can seamlessly transition from a whiteboard brainstorm to a detailed spreadsheet, and finally into a polished dashboard, without you having to reiterate the details. You can even ask Claude to build custom artifacts tailored to your specific workflows, such as project status boards, daily briefings, account trackers, or contract review tables.
And the collaboration won’t stop there: Claude Meetings is coming soon, allowing you to add Claude directly to your calls to take notes and dynamically update your team’s working documents in real time.
Turning Experts into Tool Builders
You don’t need to be an engineer to build software anymore; you just need to be an expert in your field. Inside Anthropic,non-technical teams are already leveraging these capabilities to revolutionize their workflows.
For instance, the legal team collaborated with Claude to create a custom, Slack-based legal review tool that automatically draws redlines based on their internal playbook. This innovation slashed marketing review times from three days down to just 24 hours, ensuring easy fixes are completed before a human lawyer even looks at the draft. Similarly, the finance team transformed a static, text-heavy business update for executives into an interactive page that the whole team can update collaboratively with Claude. Neither of these teams writes code, but they used Claude to turn their domain expertise into time-saving tools that their entire department can use.
Built for the Enterprise: Secure, Compliant, and Controlled
As Claude connects to a wider array of business tools, robust oversight becomes non-negotiable. Anthropic uses the same Claude for its own highly sensitive work, embedding strict security and compliance controls directly into the platform.
Administrators on Enterprise plans have granular control over who can access specific products and connectors, and can even set organizational spend limits. This control extends deeply into the connected tools themselves. Even if Claude is connected to your company’s Slack, admins can restrict its permissions so that it can read messages for context but cannot send messages on a user’s behalf.
To further reduce friction, Anthropic is introducing Claude Auto-connect (currently in beta for eligible Team and Enterprise plans). Connecting vital apps like Notion, Atlassian, or Dropbox is now a one-time, company-wide setup.Employees are automatically authenticated the first time they use the tool within Claude, eliminating the headache of individual onboarding.
As Claude takes on longer and more complex enterprise workflows, data protection remains the foundation of its architecture:
- Data from Enterprise organizations is strictly encrypted both in transit and at rest.
- Security teams are granted total visibility into how Claude is being utilized through comprehensive audit logs and a Compliance API that integrates with over 100 security tools, including Splunk and CrowdStrike.
- In the new Enterprise experience, every single cloud session operates within its own isolated virtual machine, with all connector credentials kept securely outside of it.
