Anthropic announced the launch of Claude Design, a new experimental visual design tool that enables the creation of visuals such as prototypes, slide decks, single-page layouts, and more, powered by Claude AI.
As Anthropic explains, users can describe their needs, after which Claude creates a first version of the layout. This can then be further refined through dialogue, comments, and direct editing. The service can also adapt to a team’s branding when connecting to its codebase and design files. Finished assets can be exported to Canva, PDF, PPTX, and HTML, or transferred to Claude Code for further development.
The company notes that Claude Design is aimed not only at professional designers who want to quickly test ideas and prototypes, but also at product managers, marketers, and startup founders without specialized design experience.
The product is based on the new Claude Opus 4.7 model, which Anthropic calls its most powerful publicly available model. According to the company, Opus 4.7 has significant improvements in programming, computer vision, and complex multi-step workflows. In particular, Anthropic claims an increase in the result on the XBOW visual benchmark to 98.5% compared to 54.5% for Opus 4.6.
The launch of Claude Design signals Anthropic’s ambition to enter the enterprise and professional user markets amid growing competition in the AI tools space.
