Anthropic on November 10, 2026 launched a set of workplace tools aimed at people who spend their days in meetings, spreadsheets and dashboards rather than in a code editor. A first-party page on Claude.com said Claude Whiteboards and Claude Sheets are arriving in beta and that Claude Dashboards, introduced in beta in October, is now generally available under the name Claude Data. Those three products are available on all paid plans. Independently, reporters briefed on the same day's San Francisco event said Anthropic also launched Claude Meetings in beta for Team and Enterprise customers, starting with Google Meet.

Hayden Field of The Verge, writing at 5:30 p.m. UTC on November 10, reported from that event and from a pre-briefing with Nicholas Lin, who works on product at Anthropic. Lin told The Verge that Claude Code had changed how engineers work and that the company now wanted to close the gap for everyone else. Aisha Malik of TechCrunch, writing at 9:30 a.m. Pacific time the same day, likewise described Meetings, Whiteboards and Sheets as a push to turn Claude into more of an office suite.

On the first-party page, Whiteboards is a shared board where a team can talk through a messy plan and ask Claude to turn it into a timeline with owners and dates. In a retrospective, Anthropic said, everyone can add notes and Claude can group them by theme and draft action items. People can drag a box around part of the board to ask questions about just that area, and Claude can later turn the board into a document or deck or send it into partner tools including Lucid, Miro and Vani by Zoho.

Claude Sheets, according to the same page, can generate spreadsheets with tabs, formulas, formatting and drop-downs from a prompt such as a campaign tracker or a hiring budget. Claude can edit cells and outline each change. Sheets can be shared so a team and Claude work on them together. Anthropic said spreadsheet functionality is still simple for now and that people who need the full power of Excel can export to .xlsx or CSV or use Claude for Excel. Partner tools listed for continuing the work include Airtable, Asana, monday.com and Smartsheet.

Claude Data, formerly Dashboards, adds certified queries and live sharing, both described as beta. A data team can certify the queries everyone should use, and charts built on those metrics carry a certified badge. Teams can draft data stories or narrated videos, share up-to-date numbers with colleagues who do not themselves have connector access, apply design systems, cache dashboards and track changes over time. Partners named for Claude Data include Amplitude, Mixpanel, Omni, PostHog and Sigma. Anthropic also said interactive connectors can now open as full apps beside a conversation or in full screen, citing Adobe, Atlassian, Box and Notion as examples.

Meetings details come from the independent reports, not from the Whiteboards and Sheets page. Field and Malik wrote that teams can add Claude to a video call as a visible participant that follows the conversation, drafts plans, maps timelines, answers questions in meeting chat and retrieves information from connected work apps. After the call, notes, action items and other materials are available in Claude. TechCrunch reported that Claude identifies itself, posts a notice in meeting chat, will not join calls with external guests unless an administrator authorizes it, and will leave if an external guest joins. Field wrote that Whiteboards and Sheets are available to all paid plans and that Meetings is available for Team and Enterprise subscriptions.

Admin defaults are spelled out on the first-party page: on Team plans all three of Whiteboards, Sheets and Data are on by default; on Enterprise plans Whiteboards and Sheets are off by default, and Data turns on by default on November 19, 2026. The tools work on web, desktop and mobile, and Data needs a data connector such as a warehouse or customer-relationship system. Readers should note that Meetings was described by briefed reporters rather than detailed on the official product page cited here, and that Whiteboards, Sheets and Meetings are in beta.
