Anthropic launches Claude Sheets, Meetings and Whiteboards ahead of IPO, taking on Microsoft and Google

Anthropic unveiled a suite of office tools at a San Francisco event on Tuesday, putting it in sharper competition with backers Microsoft and Google as it kicks off its IPO roadshow. Claude Sheets builds and edits spreadsheets with tabs, formulas and drop-downs; Claude Whiteboards turns brainstorms into shared boards with timelines and owners; and Claude Meetings joins Google Meet calls as a visible participant to take notes, answer questions and draft plans in real time. Sheets and Whiteboards are in beta on all paid plans, Meetings is in beta for Team and Enterprise, and Claude Data (formerly Claude Dashboards) is now generally available. Anthropic also added interactive connectors that open full apps from partners like Adobe, Atlassian and HubSpot inside Claude.
