Anthropic recently rolled out a colossal update for its generative AI chatbot, Claude. This new update allows anybody—regardless of technical ability—to seamlessly integrate all their favorite applications and tools. This new enhancement helps create a more seamless user experience by providing Claude with a richer understanding of their current tasks. This sharpens the AI’s understanding of project histories, task statuses, and accumulated organizational knowledge.
The new addition makes Claude’s strong “deep research” feature even more powerful. Today, it’s capable of easily searching the entire web, millions of enterprise accounts, and countless other data sources. According to Anthropic, Claude is capable of crawling “hundreds” of internal and external resources. It produces in-depth issue briefs on nearly any subject matter ranging from 5-45 minutes.
Anthropic does its best to be transparent about its information retrieval process. Anytime Claude references external information, it serves up easy-to-read citations that lead directly back to the source materials. Their pledge to truth and accuracy carries over to the AI-generated content, strengthening its reliability.
With this recently added functionality, Anthropic is looking to set itself up for a long-term financial success. The company plans to get to $34.5 billion in revenue by 2027. That’s a stunning leap from its annualized revenue of roughly $1.4 billion as of early March. Anthropic has been on an active and aggressive growth path building strategic partnerships. They’ve joined forces with other leading companies such as Atlassian, Zapier, Cloudflare, Intercom, Square and PayPal.

To further bolster its business, particularly in the realm of cloud services, Anthropic has formed a new team dedicated to expanding its presence in Amazon Web Services (AWS).
