Overview

  • A new web and desktop tool directory lets paid Claude subscribers link apps such as Canva, Notion, Figma, Stripe, Asana, Prisma and Socket through chat prompts.
  • The open-source Model Context Protocol powers integrations to grant limited, secure access to user data in connected apps without manual uploads.
  • Claude for Financial Services offers prebuilt MCP connectors to FactSet, PitchBook, S&P Capital IQ and Morningstar along with higher usage limits and an industry-specific prompt library.
  • The finance edition is available now on AWS Marketplace with Google Cloud Marketplace support coming soon and guarantees that client data is not used to train Anthropic’s models.
  • These updates underscore Anthropic’s strategy to make Claude both a versatile AI collaborator across creative and productivity workflows and a tailored solution for regulated industries.
