Claude.ai

Also known as: Claude website, Claude app, claude.ai

Anthropic's consumer and professional web and mobile product for conversational AI. Claude.ai gives individuals and teams access to Claude models through a browser or app interface, with features including Projects, Artifacts (rendered code and app previews), and collaborative workspaces.

Claude.ai is the primary non-API access point for Claude. Launched in 2023, it has evolved well beyond a simple chat interface. Key features include Projects, which let users create persistent context spaces where Claude retains memory of relevant documents and instructions across sessions; Artifacts, which render code snippets as live previews (useful for building quick web apps, SVGs, or interactive demos directly in the browser); and Claude Cowork, which adds shared workspaces for team collaboration.

The product also supports computer use (letting Claude take actions on screen), web browsing, document upload, and voice interaction on mobile. Anthropic deliberately does not run ads and has publicly positioned Claude.ai as a no-sponsored-content alternative to ChatGPT, which introduced ads for free users in 2026. Available plans include a free tier (with rate limits), Claude Pro ($20/month as of mid-2025), and enterprise plans with higher usage limits and team features.

For builders, Claude.ai is useful for rapid prototyping with Artifacts, running complex one-off tasks with Projects, and testing Claude behavior before committing to API integration. It is not a replacement for the API in production workflows, but the gap between what you can accomplish in Claude.ai and what requires code has shrunk considerably as Artifacts, Projects, and Routines (scheduled automation) have matured.
