Claude Design, which was introduced in April for website and prototype design, also works anywhere within Claude.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before this rollout, the company said customers often struggled to choose the right tab for the right task. With the new design, Claude automatically routes requests without having to switch tabs or windows. The idea is to remove confusion about which feature to pick and use just one front-end to route work to different parts of the app. <\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hopefully, OpenAI also takes a cue from this rollout and fixes ChatGPT\u2019s interface across the platforms.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><span class=\"wp-element-caption__text\">Image Credits; Claude<\/span><span class=\"wp-block-image__credits\"><strong>Image Credits:<\/strong>Anthropic<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Anthropic is also adding dedicated features for making presentations and documents. Users can ask the AI assistant to create, edit and present slides, and can also download the generated presentation as a PDF or PowerPoint. <\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Similarly, with the Docs feature, users can work alongside Claude to create sections, ask questions, and comment on completed parts. Users can share generated documents or slides with a link and edit them on their phone.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Users can also ask Claude to start creating a document on desktop, and they can check the progress of the task using the mobile app.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These features are rolling out to Claude\u2019s Pro and Max plans first, on the web, desktop and mobile over the coming weeks. The company plans to extend them to the free and team tiers later.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The update comes in the wake of an <a href=\"https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/2026\/08\/25\/claude-cowork-finally-remembers-what-you-told-the-app-in-chat\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">upgrade of Cowork\u2019s memory layer<\/a>, which helps Claude remember user context across chats.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><em>When you purchase through links in our articles, <a href=\"https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/techcrunch-affiliate-monetization-standards\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">we may earn a small commission<\/a>.
