Claude Cowork comes to every conversation, plus 1 more change
We're rolling out a new Claude experience that makes everything Claude Cowork does available from any conversation. Ask a quick question or hand Claude a bigger task, like a report, spreadsheet, or presentation, without choosing a mode first. Your chats, Cowork tasks, projects, connectors, and skills carry over. The new experience is rolling out gradually to Pro and Max plans on web, desktop, and mobile. Learn more in Claude Cowork and chat are one Claude. You can now ask for a design, deck, or document in any conversation with Claude, including in Claude Code and the Artifacts tab, and edit it with Claude or directly as you work. Claude Design works inside your conversations with all of its features, including on-canvas editing and importing your design system. Claude Slides gives presentations their own starting point, and Claude Docs is a new way to write living documents with Claude and your team. Artifacts, including Claude Design, Claude Slides, and Claude Docs, are available on every plan, including Free. On Enterprise plans, Claude Design, Claude Slides, and Claude Docs are in beta and off by default until an owner turns them on. Learn more in What are artifacts and how do I use them? and Get started with Claude Docs.

Claude apps
Claude Cowork on web and mobile, plus 1 more change
Claude Cowork is now available on web and mobile in addition to desktop. We are rolling this capability out over the next several weeks starting with the Max plan, with more plans to follow. Cowork runs your sessions remotely (in beta), so your sessions and files are saved to your Claude account and go where you go, on any device. Work continues when you close your laptop, and scheduled tasks run with no device online. Chat and Cowork also share one home now, with one place for your projects and artifacts across both. The Microsoft 365 connector now goes beyond search. With write tools enabled, Claude can draft, send, and organize email, manage calendar events, update mailbox settings, and create and update files in OneDrive and SharePoint. Read and search tools work as before, and Teams remains read-only. Before members can use write tools, a Microsoft Entra administrator needs to consent to the updated permission set and an admin needs to enable them for the organization.
