Join the waitlist here: https://bit.ly/4t2974w Claude Cowork is a brand new tool from Anthropic that lets you collaborate with AI on a shared set of files. Instead of just talking, it can read your documents, do research, ask follow-up questions, and create real deliverables like Word docs, spreadsheets, and summaries.
