Summary
Anthropic rolled out Claude Meetings, Whiteboards and Sheets on Tuesday, adding real-time AI help for calls, brainstorming and spreadsheets across paid workplace plans.
Claude Meetings lets teams add Claude to Google Meet calls, where it drafts plans, builds timelines, answers chat questions and pulls data from connected apps before saving notes and action items in claude.ai.
Whiteboards and Sheets extend that workflow beyond calls: teams can co-edit visual boards and spreadsheets with Claude, which can generate slide decks, trackers or budgets and make cell-level edits with formulas and dropdowns.
Anthropic also made Claude Data generally available and added interactive connectors that open apps such as Adobe, Atlassian and HubSpot inside Claude.
The launch comes weeks after OpenAI introduced similar workplace tools, with Anthropic, OpenAI and Meta all pushing AI assistants deeper into office software to challenge Microsoft and Google.
