Overview

• The update adds a dedicated Artifacts workspace in the Claude sidebar where users can build, host and share interactive AI-powered applications without writing code.
• Creators simply describe their app ideas in natural language and Claude generates, tests and hosts the underlying code.
• Applications can call Claude’s API for real-time responses and adapt dynamically without requiring ongoing chat sessions.
• Shared apps incur API costs on the end-user’s subscription, allowing creators on free or paid plans to distribute tools at no extra charge.
• The beta rollout to free, Pro and Max users underscores the shift towards no-code AI development and heightens competition with OpenAI’s Canvas.
