Anthropic has added two new tools to Claude for people who pay for it. Claude Sheets is a spreadsheet that Claude builds and edits with you, and Claude Whiteboards is a shared board where a team brainstorms with Claude. Both arrived on Nov. 10 as early test versions, which the company calls beta. A third tool, Claude Dashboards, which turns a company's own data into live charts and has been in testing since October, is now out of testing and has been renamed Claude Data.
Anthropic's pitch is that work no longer has to leave Claude. Until now, people often copied what Claude made into another program, where Claude could not follow the changes. The company says documents, boards, sheets and charts can now stay in Claude, where a team keeps editing them together. Apps from Adobe, Atlassian, Box and Notion can now also open inside Claude, beside the chat.
Sheets and Whiteboards come with all of Claude's paid plans, but not the free one. As of Nov. 11, Claude Pro, the cheapest paid plan for one person, costs $20 a month, or $17 a month when paid for a year up front. All three tools work on the web, the desktop app and phones. On Team plans, all three are on by default. On Enterprise plans, Sheets and Whiteboards start switched off until a company's administrator turns them on, and Claude Data switches on by itself on Nov. 19, 2026.
From a short request, such as a hiring budget, Claude can build a sheet with tabs, formulas and drop-down lists, and it marks each edit it makes. Anthropic says the sheets have only simple spreadsheet features for now. For anything more, people can, for example, save the sheet as an Excel file or a plain CSV data file. On a whiteboard, someone can talk through a messy plan out loud, and Claude can lay it out as a timeline showing who does what by when.
Claude Data needs a link to where a company keeps its records, such as a data warehouse, the big central store where a business keeps its figures, or a customer records system. Anthropic says a company's data team can approve the calculations everyone should use, so two charts of the same figure don't disagree. That approval feature is still in testing, and so is live sharing, which lets colleagues open a chart and see the latest numbers without their own access to the data.
Anthropic says Claude Meetings, which will let a team add Claude to a call to take notes and update its documents as people talk, is coming soon. Anthropic gives no date, though a news report says Team and Enterprise customers can already try it. Anthropic has not said when Sheets and Whiteboards will leave testing. It says it is working on more spreadsheet features for Sheets but gives no date.
