Anthropic is launching Claude Cowork on mobile and web

Anthropic’s Claude Cowork AI platform is expanding to mobile and web with new cloud-based processing, allowing tasks to run continuously in the background.

Starting Tuesday, Anthropic’s Claude Cowork AI platform will be available on mobile and web for the first time. The expanded access is rolling out first to Max subscribers and coming to Claude users on other plans “in the coming weeks.”

Claude Cowork will also run in the cloud now, so it can keep working on tasks even when you close your laptop.

Claude Cowork was previously only accessible through the Claude desktop app for macOS and Windows, but now users on iOS and Android can also use it. However, Anthropic says the “full experience” for Cowork will still be on the desktop app, including features like local file access.

Cowork sessions will also now run in the cloud by default, so you can continue them across different devices or run Cowork tasks in the background even when your laptop is closed. There’s still an option for local processing on the desktop app, where users can switch between cloud and local processing. Additionally, scheduled tasks will now run even when none of your devices are online. Claude can also send Cowork notifications to your phone when it has something ready for you to review or approve.

Alongside Cowork’s mobile and web launch, Anthropic is also extending its doubled Cowork usage limits through August 5th.
