Claude Cowork and chat are now one Claude
2 hours ago
- Claude Cowork and chat are merging into a single Claude, eliminating the need to decide where a task belongs.
- New features include Claude Docs, Claude Slides, and Claude Design inside conversations, allowing collaborative document and slide creation.
- Users can edit, present, or download outputs as PowerPoint or PDF; all are in beta on paid plans.
- Context, skills, and connectors carry over from any conversation, so Claude handles tasks seamlessly.
- Example: Claude can generate a weekly report, create slides, and schedule recurring tasks automatically.
- Outputs from Claude Design, Slides, and Docs are shareable via a single link accessible on mobile.
- Users control Claude's check-in behavior: default asks before actions, or it can proceed and only check in when needed.
- Rollout begins with Pro and Max plans over the next few weeks, followed by Team and Free plans; Enterprise admins receive 30-day notice.
