Anthropic rolls out a computer use feature for Claude Cowork and the Claude Code desktop app, available in research preview on macOS for Pro and Max subscribers

The developer is boosting Claude's agentic capabilities in an apparent effort to compete with platforms like OpenClaw.

    You can now enable Claude to use your computer to complete tasks. It opens your apps, navigates your browser, fills in spreadsheets—anything you'd do sitting at your desk. Research preview in Claude Cowork and Claude Code, macOS only. [video]

    Claude uses your connected apps first: Slack, Calendar, and other integrations. When there's no connector for the tool you need, it asks for your permission to open the app on your screen directly. [image]

    Today, we're releasing a feature that allows Claude to control your computer: Mouse, keyboard, and screen, giving it the ability to use any app.  I believe this is especially useful if used with Dispatch, which allows you to remotely control Claude on your computer while you're a…

    It's pretty obvious why Anthropic didn't buy OpenClaw. Claude is aiming to do anything you can do on a computer.

  • @jasonbotterill @jasonbotterill on x
    Claude now has full Computer Use so it can directly use your mouse and keyboard It feels like it should be able to do anything now like use Photoshop or Minecraft. starting to feel like the AI assistants we were promised. [image]
  • @claudeai Claude on x
    Assign a task from your phone, turn your attention to something else, and come back to finished work on your computer. Tell Claude once to scan your email every morning or pull a report every Friday, and it handles it from there. [image]

    This is another domino to fall - computer use of arbitrary apps, not just your browser. This is a big deal for lots of corporates who have custom crappy apps from 20-30 years ago. Since it is Mac only and Research Preview, I'm guessing it won't be very impactful, but it is here.
  • @wongmjane Jane Manchun Wong on x
    Anthropic is like the Claude Code for “this product / startup should've been a feature” and they do exactly that, one tweet at a time

    One of the key elements of powerful AI (as defined in Machines of Loving Grace) is “ha[ving] all the ‘interfaces’ available to a human working virtually, including text, audio, video, mouse and keyboard control, and internet access”, with a skill “exceeding that of the most
  • @felixrieseberg Felix Rieseberg on x
    This will work with both Claude Cowork and Claude Code Desktop. You can ask Claude to click all the buttons in a legacy app that you'd like to automate - or use it to help debug a native app you're working on. It's slow but giving Claude my mouse & keyboard is *so* exciting to

    Little known fact, the Anthropic Labs team (the team I joined Anthropic to be on) shipped: - MCP - Skills - Claude Desktop app - Claude Code It was just a few of us, shipping fast, trying to keep pace with what the model was capable of. Those early Desktop computer use

  • @badlogicgames Mario Zechner on x
    this is super cool. and i think mid-term, some “emulating humans at a computer” is probably the way to go. i hope this is not the long term strategy, because it is extremely inefficient. this probably must be solved at the OS layer wrt observability. think aria tree.

    I wonder if agents will create durable market demand for desktop computers as opposed to laptops. Features like this work much better on machines with persistent access to power. Of course there is the Mac Mini micro-trend, but the claw stuff is likely a flash in the pan.

    This is a big deal. I believe this is going to change how we get things done. @felixrieseberg and the team are just shipping like crazy.
  • @felixrieseberg Felix Rieseberg on x
    This is releasing to macOS today, Windows will follow in the next few weeks. The entire computer use field is early - Claude will move slowly and deliberately, much slower than a human does today. To try it out, download the app from https://claude.com/...
