    Claude code for normies

    We launched Cowork today in research preview. We've heard time and time again that people wanted the power of Claude Code but in a much more approachable form. This is it. [video]

    Claude can use your existing connectors, which link Claude to external information. You can also pair Cowork with Claude in Chrome for tasks that need browser access.
  • @claudeai Claude on x
    Once you've set a task, Claude makes a plan and steadily completes it, looping you in along the way. Claude will ask before taking any significant actions so you can course-correct as needed.

    Cowork is available as a research preview for Claude Max subscribers in the macOS app. Click on “Cowork” in the sidebar: https://claude.com/... If you're on another plan, join the waitlist for future access here: https://forms.gle/...

    In Cowork, you give Claude access to a folder on your computer. Claude can then read, edit, or create files in that folder. Try it to create a spreadsheet from a pile of screenshots, or produce a first draft from scattered notes. [video]
  • @alexalbert__ Alex Albert on x
    The “Claude Code but for non-coders” moment is here. Cowork will form the foundation of the future of knowledge work.
  • @claudeai Claude on x
    Introducing Cowork: Claude Code for the rest of your work. Cowork lets you complete non-technical tasks much like how developers use Claude Code. [video]
  • @signulll @signulll on x
    this is genuinely good. like quietly devastating good. how did anthropic beat chatgpt to this?
  • @deanwball Dean W. Ball on x
    called it, though came earlier in 2026 than I'd have guessed [image]
  • @altryne Alex Volkov on x
    holy shit Anthropic built “Cowork” in the last... week and a half?! Confirmed by Anthropic employee @felixrieseberg on @danshipper's live stream I wonder how much of this was Claude Code [video]
  • @thezvi Zvi Mowshowitz on x
    So it's Claude Code.

    BREAKING NEWS! @AnthropicAI drops Claude Cowork—it's Claude Code for non-technical people - Built for long-running tasks run on your computer - No terminal required, start right from the Claude app as a new tab - Access to all of your computer's context, can drive a browser, [ima…

  • @gavinpurcell Gavin Purcell on x
    Claude Cowork is one of the smartest AI tool roll-outs I've seen to date. Anthropic says. 'Hmmm, Claude Code is getting a lot of pickup and there's a bunch of people using it for non-coding uses...' And then makes the product. This is AI lock-in for the entire office. [image]
  • @chatgpt21 Chris on x
    BREAKING 🚨 Anthropic just unveiled “Cowork,” a major feature that turns Claude into a fully autonomous virtual assistant for everyone. It brings the deep agentic capabilities previously reserved for coders to general users, allowing Claude to perform complex tasks directly on [vi…

    @altryne All of it
  • @altryne Alex Volkov on x
    @bcherny How much of it did Claude Code write? https://x.com/...
  • @emollick Ethan Mollick on x
    Note this doesn't yet have all the useful features of Claude Code, not does it have a fully differentiated non-technical UX yet. But it is a sign of how quickly Anthropic is iterating on what seems to be a growing consensus on how individual agents for teal work will operate.
  • @_arohan_ Rohan Anil on x
    I am amazed. Just tested it out for studying a machine learning topic. It feels like Jarvis.
  • @nikunj Nikunj Kothari on x
    Holy cow.. this is SO good. Anthropic is wildly undervalued 😅

  • @yuchenj_uw Yuchen Jin on x
    Anthropic's ambition isn't just coding. It's general agent. I've said this before: they're building Jarvis in Iron Man. Claude isn't good at multimodality yet. Once it can see what you see and hear what you hear, it becomes dramatically more useful. AI will not replace you. A
  • @trq212 @trq212 on x
    Cowork is Claude Code packaged as a general agent for any task on your computer there's so much more to do here, would absolutely love y'alls feedback on it
  • @lennysan Lenny Rachitsky on x
    Very exciting. You can now do the wild stuff Claude Code can locally on your computer right within Claude Desktop. Huge. Will unlock the power of Claude Code to so many more people. (And very cool they linked to my post on CC in their announcement, thanks team @AnthropicAI) [imag…
  • @gregisenberg Greg Isenberg on x
    Send this to every normal person you know because normal people don't want to touch a terminal and this will make them 100x more powerful and productive at whatever is they do
  • @thogge Tyler Hogge on x
    it seems increasingly likely that Claude will own the enterprise, and ChatGPT will own consumer. today is a microcosm of that trend: chat acquires torch (consumer), and claude launches this.
  • @_arohan_ Rohan Anil on x
    Claude will be running my life at this point. This is very cool!

  • @danshipper Dan Shipper on x
    Claude Cowork isn't chat—it's async AI for the rest of us. Ask your computer to do something. Walk away. Come back to results. Claude Code users know this feeling. Now non-technical folks get it too. [video]

    Testing out the new Claude Cowork. I asked it to go through every Lenny's Podcast episode and pull out the 10 most important themes and lessons for product builders. Then, the 10 most counterintuitive truths. I gave it access to a folder with 320 transcripts. First, it said [imag…
