Anthropic Announces Claude Meetings to Turn Workplace Meetings into Plans and Tasks

Anthropic has introduced Claude Meetings, a tool that joins video calls to convert conversations into plans and tasks simultaneously. Announced on Tuesday, the company also unveiled Claude Whiteboards, Claude Sheets, and the generally available Claude Data tools aimed at boosting workplace productivity.

Claude Meetings allows teams to add Claude as a visible participant to video discussions. As participants talk, Claude follows the chat stream, drafts plans, creates timelines on a whiteboard, and answers questions in the meeting chat. After the meeting, notes and action items become accessible via claude.ai. Initially working with Google Meet, the tool is offered in beta on Team and Enterprise plans.

Claude Whiteboards, introduced by the company, offers a collaborative board where teams can work directly and in real time with Claude. Meanwhile, Claude Sheets provides support for multi-tabs, formulas, and cell editing in spreadsheets such as campaign trackers or hiring budgets. Offered in beta across web, desktop, and mobile platforms, these tools intensify office suite competition against giants like Microsoft and Google.

Claude Data, formerly known as Claude Dashboards, enables companies to connect to data warehouses or CRM systems to provide dashboards, written data stories, and narrated videos. Additionally, interactive connectors that open full versions of applications like Adobe, Atlassian, and HubSpot within Claude have been launched.
