You can now build AI apps while chatting with Anthropic Claude, vibe coding available to these users
Anthropic has launched a new feature inside its Claude app that allows users to build, host and share interactive AI-powered applications while chatting with Claude. The company says the update, currently in beta, makes it easier for developers and hobbyists alike to turn their ideas into functioning apps – without worrying about scaling infrastructure or handling complicated deployment steps. The new feature turns Claude's interactive 'artifacts' into full-fledged apps powered by Claude's API. Once created, these apps can be shared via a link and used by others without the original developer having to foot the someone uses your Claude-powered app, they authenticate with their existing Claude account,' Anthropic said in a blog post. 'Their API usage counts against their subscription, not yours. You pay nothing for their usage.'That also means there's no need to manage API keys, and the apps themselves can handle a wide range of tasks. Users can view and edit the code Claude writes, making it easier to iterate and customise each application. Claude handles the more technical parts such as prompt engineering, orchestration logic and error two new ways to create with Claude:A dedicated space for building, hosting, and sharing artifacts, and the ability to embed AI capabilities directly into your creations. Anthropic (@AnthropicAI) June 25, 2025 Anthropic says that early testers have already built a variety of tools using the new feature. These include:advertisement-AI-driven games with characters that remember conversations and adapt to users' choices-Learning apps that provide personalised tutoring based on skill level-Data tools that let users upload CSV files and query them using plain language-Writing assistants for scripts, documentation, and more-Multi-agent workflows that automate complex AI tasksTo get started, users simply need to describe their idea to Claude. The AI assistant will then generate working code, suggest changes, and improve it through back-and-forth feedback. Once ready, the app can be shared instantly via a link.'You can see it, modify it, and share it freely,' Anthropic new coding tool currently comes with some limitations. It doesn't yet support external API calls or persistent storage, and it's currently limited to using Claude's text-based completion API. However, users can still use React to create rich user interfaces and incorporate Claude API calls within the confirmed the feature is available in beta for users on its Free, Pro and Max plans.- Ends

Anthropic rolls out an API for AI-powered web search
Anthropic is launching a new API that allows its Claude AI models to search across the web. Developers using it can build Claude-powered apps that deliver up-to-date info, the company said in a press release published Wednesday. The rollout of the API comes as AI companies look to augment their models in various ways that might attract new customers to their platforms. For its part, Anthropic last week debuted a tool to connect applications to Claude as well as an expanded 'deep research' capability that lets Claude search enterprise accounts, websites, and more. 'Developers can now augment Claude's comprehensive knowledge with current, real-world data by enabling the web search tool when making requests to [our] API,' Anthropic wrote in its release. 'With web search, developers can now build AI solutions that tap into current information without needing to manage their own web search infrastructure.' Web search is now available on our API. Developers can augment Claude's comprehensive knowledge with up-to-date data. — Anthropic (@AnthropicAI) May 7, 2025 When the web search API is enabled, Claude will use 'reasoning' capabilities to determine whether a given request would benefit from up-to-date information or specialized knowledge. If Claude decides to search the web, it'll generate a search query, retrieve results, analyze them, and provide an answer with citations. Claude can also refine its queries and conduct multiple searches, using earlier results to inform subsequent queries. Developers can customize this behavior as well as specify domains from which Claude is allowed and not allowed to search. Devs can also allow or prohibit web search use at the organization level, Anthropic says. Devs can block Claude from searching certain domains.

With web search enabled, Claude Code can access current API documentation, technical articles, and other information on development tools and libraries. Claude Code remains in beta as a research preview.
