About Claude

Claude for Work is Anthropic's Claude on the Team and Enterprise plans, on the web, desktop and mobile. People use it to review long documents, share Projects with their team, connect work tools through connectors, run Research across the web and those tools, and save repeatable work as skills. Owners control connectors, capabilities and data settings. Commercial chats aren't used for training by default.

Best for: People on a Claude Team or Enterprise plan, and the Owners and Admins who run it.

Good for

  • Reviewing long contracts, reports and policies, including what's missing
  • Shared Projects with instructions and knowledge files for repeat work
  • Research reports that pull from the web and your connected tools, with citations
  • Skills that do a task the same way every time

Where people slip

  • Clicking Always allow on a connector tool when Allow once would do
  • Writing details in a project's description, which Claude can't see, instead of its instructions
  • Sharing a Project without checking what's in its knowledge files
  • Installing a skill from a source you don't trust
Does Anthropic train on Claude for Work chats?

Not by default. Inputs and outputs on commercial plans like Team and Enterprise aren't used for training. Feedback you send with the thumbs buttons may be, and Owners can turn feedback off.

What are connectors in Claude?

Connectors link Claude to tools like your docs, tickets or calendar. On Team and Enterprise an Owner adds them, then you connect your own account. Claude only sees what your account can see. You approve tool use with Allow once or Always allow.

What is a Claude skill?

A folder with a SKILL.md file that teaches Claude a repeatable task. Claude decides when to use one from its description. You manage skills in Customize > Skills. Built-in skills cover Excel, Word, PowerPoint and PDF files.

How is Claude for Work different from a personal Claude account?

Team and Enterprise are organization plans with admin controls and commercial data terms. Personal plans like Pro and Max follow consumer terms. You can have both and switch from your name in the lower left, so check which one you're in before adding work files.
