Anthropic launches Claude Dashboards and Motion in beta, moves Docs, Slides, and Design out of beta

Anthropic has introduced Claude Dashboards and Claude Motion in beta, while moving Claude Docs, Slides, and Design out of beta for all plans, including Free. These updates aim to reduce the friction of data analysis and presentation creation by allowing users to generate interactive dashboards and animated explainers directly within Claude.

Claude Dashboards

Claude Dashboards connects to data platforms such as Amazon Redshift, BigQuery, ClickHouse, Databricks, and Snowflake, as well as CRM tools like Salesforce. Users can ask questions in plain language, and Claude builds a dashboard that stays current as the underlying data changes. Each chart displays the query behind it, allowing users to verify the logic or ask Claude to explain it. The tool supports quick exploratory questions and can send dashboards to external analytics tools like Amplitude, Grafana, Hex, Mixpanel, Omni, Perplexity, PostHog, and Sigma for deeper analysis.

Claude Motion

Claude Motion generates animated explainers from text prompts, such as turning a quarterly report into a 30-second video. Unlike video generation models, Claude Motion writes code to animate text, charts, shapes, and images, making every element editable. Users can adjust timing and content in the editor or via prompts, then download the result as an MP4 file. The output can also be opened in external tools like Adobe, Descript, HeyGen, Higgsfield, invideo, Luma AI, and Runway.

Docs, Slides, and Design Updates

Claude Docs, Slides, and Design are now generally available on every plan, including Free. Since their introduction, users have created more than 45 million docs, decks, and designs. Key enterprise features now include support for CMEK (Customer-Managed Encryption Keys) for artifacts and admin controls for artifact templates. Teams can collaborate on the same document, and exports to PowerPoint, PDF, and Google Slides preserve formatting. Mobile editing is also supported.

Claude Design Migration

The standalone Claude Design site at claude.ai/design will be folded into the main Claude interface. The standalone version will remain active until December 14, giving users time to migrate. Design systems can be migrated via the Artifacts page, but chats and comments from the standalone version will not be transferred. Public links to standalone projects will stop working after the closure date.
