Introducing Cowork
Cowork brings Claude Code’s agentic capabilities to the Claude desktop app. Give Claude access to a folder, set a task, and let it work. It loops you in along the way.
Bring Claude to your desktop
Claude stays ready in the background. Go further with Claude Cowork for agentic tasks, or Claude Code for your full development workflow. See what you can do with the desktop app.
Download the Claude app, navigate to the top toggle, and choose which product to work in. For Cowork, support is not available for Windows (arm64) at this time. Open to all paid users. Not on a paid plan? Upgrade now
Access anytime
Bring up Claude from any app without switching windows or losing focus.
Share your work
Snap screenshots, share windows, or drag files directly into your chat so Claude can see what you see.
Think out loud
Switch to voice input to brainstorm, work through complex problems, or draft while you think.
Connect your tools
Let Claude work directly with your code editor, local files, databases, and Claude in Chrome to debug issues, test code, and automate tasks.
Go from answers to action with Cowork
Unlike Chat, Cowork gives you all of the agentic power of Claude Code for non-technical tasks. Cowork is a research preview and only available in the desktop app.
Build a daily briefing across all your tools
Generate a daily briefing that pulls from Slack, Notion, and your team dashboard to surface priorities and connections you'd miss scanning each platform separately.
Build analysis from browser charts and folder data
Pull your quarterly revenue from scattered board decks, then grab GDP and inflation data from FRED. Cowork creates a comparison chart showing how your growth stacks up against the macro environment.
Prep scattered documents for a compliance audit
Turn a folder of scattered policy documents, contracts, and records into an organized, clearly named collection ready for regulatory review.
Go from local to live with Claude Code
Preview servers, review diffs, and monitor PRs without leaving the app. Start in Claude Code on desktop and pick it up from the web or your phone.
Preview servers
Start a dev server and see your running app in the desktop app. Claude reads console logs, catches errors, and iterates.
Review code
Turn a folder of scattered policy documents, contracts, and records into an organized, clearly named collection ready for regulatory review.
Monitor PRs
Track CI status after you open a PR. Enable auto-fix and auto-merge so Claude handles failures and lands the PR when ready.
Bringing automated preview, review, and merge to Claude Code on desktop
Updates to Claude Code on desktop help you close the development loop, so you can go from writing code to merging PRs in one place.
