In a press release published on November 10, 2026, Anthropic unveiled several productivity tools aimed at non-technical profiles. Its conversational agent Claude can now create spreadsheets, whiteboards, and dashboards, thanks to new artifact types named Sheets, Whiteboards, and Data. The company also announced Claude Meetings, which will allow users to invite Claude to a meeting.
- Anthropic launches Claude Sheets, Claude Whiteboards, and Claude Data for non-technical users.
- Claude Sheets generates spreadsheets in beta for paid subscribers and tracks each change.
- Claude Whiteboards groups team ideas by theme and proposes task assignments.
- Claude Data leaves beta and builds real-time dashboards from connected company data, while Claude Meetings joins video calls in beta.
Spreadsheets and whiteboards created with Claude
Available in beta for paying subscribers on web, desktop, iOS, and Android versions, Claude Sheets generates a spreadsheet from a query, featuring “tabs, formulas, formatting, and dropdown lists.” The tool can be used to track a campaign or set up a hiring budget, for example. “It can directly modify cells, flagging each new change so you can track modifications,” the firm adds.
Created files can be shared with team members. However, Anthropic acknowledges that the tool is currently limited to basic spreadsheet functionalities and assures that “more are in the works.” Users can export their file in .xlsx or CSV format, or turn to Claude for Excel, available since January. Work can also continue in partner tools, “including Airtable, Asana, monday.com, and Smartsheet.”
Introduced in the same announcement, Claude Whiteboards is a virtual, collaborative whiteboard, intended for users who use the chatbot “as a thinking partner.” During a meeting or brainstorming session, each participant adds their ideas and notes, then Claude groups them by theme and can propose a list of tasks assigned to each person. Once the meeting is over, the board can be transformed into a document or presentation, or exported to Lucid, Miro, or Vani by Zoho. The tool is offered in beta on the web, desktop, and mobile, and is included in all paid plans.
Claude Dashboards becomes Claude Data
Unveiled in October, Claude Dashboards officially leaves beta and takes the name Claude Data. Anthropic justifies this change by stating that “companies use their data far beyond dashboards, and the product now covers their uses more broadly.”
This feature, reserved for paid plans, generates real-time updated dashboards from a company’s data once it is connected to data warehouses like BigQuery or Snowflake. The general availability brings several new features: dashboards now handle caching, retain a history of changes, can be shared live, and support design systems, meaning the common graphical rule sets for a brand or company.
Claude Meetings, an assistant in video calls
With Claude Meetings, users will be able to invite the chatbot to a video call. Claude will be able to take notes, answer certain questions in the chat, or create a calendar during the conversation. If it has the appropriate permissions, it will also be able to access business applications to obtain information useful for its tasks.
According to the specialized media TechCrunch, Claude Meetings is being rolled out in beta on Team and Enterprise plans. Anthropic has not announced a general availability date.
