Claude Cowork turns your phone into a remote control for AI work

Anthropic started rolling out Claude Cowork, an AI agent that completes multi-step tasks, in beta for Max users on mobile and the web. They describe a goal, and Claude plans the work, uses the required tools, and produces outputs such as documents, spreadsheets, presentations, and reports. Remote Cowork session Tasks continue running in the background, even after a laptop is closed, and scheduled tasks can run without a device online.
