- Claude Cowork, Anthropic's Claude Code-style agent, is expanding from desktop to web and mobile for Max subscribers, enabling cross-device task management.
- The expansion positions Cowork as an agentic administrative coworker that works in the background, requests human input when needed, and operates across devices, moving beyond a coding tool.
- Anthropic's move reflects a broader trend where AI firms like OpenAI are pushing products into everyday work surfaces, betting on owning the space where work gets done rather than just having the best chatbot.
- Anthropic also launched Claude Tag for Slack, an always-on AI teammate, and emphasizes Cowork's ability to run tasks in the background without an online device.
